Blackheath
I iii 51
Dearest Sylvia
I was able to return quite early from Chelmsford and so come home for a few hours before going to Hampstead.
The lecture was like any other - but, oh, my hosts.
For two hours after supper they showed me every repro-
duction on the walls of their house, forced me to talk
about each one, and at midnight started producing
stuff from the attic. Among this stuff was a life size
Victorian portrait, embroidered: this they called a
'monstrosity.' It was mid-century and charming. My
mounting aggression took the form of a defence of this charming piece. When I left this morning it
had been restored to the walls, in fact in a conspic-
uous place that I chose for it, with the light falling
in accordance with the simulated shadows of the frame.
They besieged me with invitations - sincere ones, which
as you know, I find intolerable - to spend a week-
end there, any weekend. I pretended I have their address. I have not.
