familiar grouchy uncle Of fiction and
the drama. I made notes on him from
time to time with view to building
a play around him-the perfect uncle,
unobtrusive, never clustering at his
nephew; translating the avuncular
relationship into something remote and
chaste like a distant view of Mount
Washington in winter. It was just

his sixtieth birthday and depart for
the Orient, there to commit the
shameless indiscretion of matrimony."
