Also we can supply mail orders promptly to any of our subscribers. By
handling this part of the business directly we will avoid all the
confusion and delays inherent in our former arrangement.
We want to open our shop by May 1 if possible, and the next issue will
contain the complete announcement.
We cannot take any orders until that date, but if you will deluge us
with your patronage after that time we will be eternally grateful.
“THE LITTLE REVIEW,”
31 West 14th Street,
New York City.
“Surprise”!
The “surprise” I promised in the last issue is this:
Ezra Pound is to become Foreign Editor of “The Little Review.”
This means that he and T. S. Eliot will have an American organ (horrible
phrase) in which they can appear regularly once a month, where James
Joyce can appear when he likes, and where Wyndham Lewis can appear if he
comes back from the war. Also it means two or three other names of the
“young blood” who will contribute from time to time, and altogether the
most stunning plan that any magazine has had the good fortune to
announce for a long, long time.
It means that a great deal of the most creative work of modern London
and Paris will be published in these pages. So that by getting “The
Little Review” and “The Egoist” you will be in touch with the two most
important radical organs of contemporary literature.
It all goes into effect with the May issue, and I can promise that it
will not be “delayed on account of the war,” because the copy is already
here ready for the printer.
Now will all you subscribers help to bring in as many new subscriptions
as possible right away, and will all of you whose subscriptions are
overdue renew quickly, and will any of you who are overburdened with
money contribute a little toward our next issue? It is so terribly hard
to get started in a new city, though everything will go so much better
once we are fully started here. And though I have been looking for a
printer who would do our work for nothing, or even for a small
amount,—incredible as it may sound, I have not yet found him.
The Reader Critic
The March Issue
Harold Bauer, New York:
The only trouble with the last number of _The Little Review_ is that
there is not enough Bauer in it. Why drag in Mary?
Note
H., Cleveland:
I believe you have largely proved your contention that you are producing
a magazine which has an understanding of what Art is by the splendid
recognition you award Mary Garden. Clarity, in comprehending her, has
been too frightfully rare.
To “jh”
Louise Gebhard Cann, Seattle:
I must love any one who can write as you write!
