[Charles Agvent]

We will later this year be cataloging letters from and manuscripts by 
Diane Di Prima.

OLSON, Charles. AUTOGRAPH LETTER SIGNED (ALS) TO DIANE DI PRIMA. 
Gloucester, MA, 9 Nov. 1965. A 4-1/2 page AUTOGRAPH LETTER SIGNED 
"Charles" on 5 sheets of 5" x 8" lined yellow paper to poet Diane Di 
Prima. "My dear Diane [Your own book sent me off onto a path I haven't 
gone back to since; Also read SB's volume] but this is to tell you how 
much I enjoyed Huncke's hunk of stuff-- I like also how it is presented 
richly [the way it comes out] [the way he comes out, ditto: so 
congratulations to you both." Olson goes on to recommend a place to stay 
in Nova Scotia. He appears to think of additional things to say after he 
has sealed the envelope, which is present and completely full on the 
verso and part of the recto with more of Olson's writing about the place 
in Nova Scotia. Normal creases from folding; otherwise, Fine.
