Content and physical description
ContentThanks for the letter from Bohuslav Martinů - he was pleased, because he receives very few letters from Bohemia; mentions his symphony - awakened old envy; Štěpán's criticism; K.B.J. fears that his way home will be closed to him at a time of growing national self-consciousness, if only. He is considered a German composer; his conducting activity in Hamburg is only a temporary measure, he would like to find a job at home; he mentions the BM Quartet; KBJ openly opposes Impressionism; Frau Drill-Orridge would like to sing in Prague; KBJ is enjoying his last holiday days at the North Sea; he encloses a postcard from Mrs. Drill-Oridge.
