Tobias Wolff is a very agreeable chap…I was pleased to see I remain in his good graces…” Lists McCarthy editions that Woolmer might not have in his. “My translator was here a few weeks ago. Charming gentleman who loved the desert and kept crying out ‘formidéble!’ at everything…I’m working on a whale story.
