Soft cover. Condizione: Good. 1st Edition. First edition. Paperback. 23 × 15cm, 144pp. Issue No 9 of the Transatlantic Review. This issue features Jack Kerouac's 'Joan Rawshanks in the Fog' - a hallucinatory, standalone vignette that Kerouac later incorporated into his experimental masterpiece, Visions of Cody. It offers a surreal look at Hollywood artifice through the lens of a Joan Crawford film set. Alongside it is Muriel Spark's 'Ladies and Gentlemen,' a sharp, witty display of the 'cunning tautness' that made her a dame of British letters. The issue is rounded out by the gritty, working-class poetry of Alan Sillitoe, then at the height of his 'Angry Young Man' fame following Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner. Condition: There is some wear to the spine but otherwise this copy remains in good readable condition.

The first letter dated 29th June, 1970 and consisting of about 115 words passes on information from Wilson about agreeing to his fee and saying he must read the stories first and that as he is 'frantically busy' he couldn't have it ready before September. Several notes on the letter in Haining's hand. The second letter addressed as above dated 21st September, 1970 consisting of about 92 words encloses a carbon of the foreword and says Wilson has asked for Haining to tone down the 'fulsome' remarks about him in the preface. The final letter addressed as above dated 30th September, 1970 and consisting of about 215 words in which Giles Gordon discusses a few changes and the dust jacket illustration and says it has now gone to the printers. He says he thinks it is impressive and is as good as 'The Wild Night Company' (Haining's book on Irish Terror Tales). He says he has cut down some of the 'estatic praise for the individual contributors as I think your enthusiasm rather ran away with you.'
