he began making his preparations to go into the army.

So careless had he been of any public or private approval;
the " work " lay in piles on the floor of an attic; and
most of the
from it we gathered the hundred or hundred and twenty
drawings which now form the base of Quinn and of the
Baker collection.

As very few people have seen all of these pictures
very few people are in any position to contradict me. There
are three of his works in this room and I can attest their
wearing capacity, as I can test it in the duration of my
regret for the Red drawing now in Quinn collection which
hangs here for some months waiting shipment; as I can
attest the energy and vitality that filled this place
while forty drawings of the Quinn assortment stood here
waiting also: a demonstration of the difference between
"cubism" nature-nature-ism and the vortex of Lewis: sun,
energy, social emotion, clean-drawing, disgust, penetrating
analysis, from the qualities finding literary expression in
"farr" to the stasis of the Red Duet, from the
metallic gleam of the "Timon" portfolio to the Velvet-suavity
of the later "Timon" of the Baker collection.

The animality and the animal satire, the dynamic
and metalic properties, the social satire, on the one hand
the sunlight, the utter cleanness of the Red Duet, are
all points in an astounding circumference; which will,
until the work is adequately reproduced, have more or less

to be taken on trust BASE by the " wider " public.

SUGGESTION

The novel "farr" is in print and no one seems bother to read my critiques of it. It contains much that Joyce's work does not contain, but differentiations between the to authors are to the detriment of neither, one tires solely to discriminate qualities: hardness, fulness, abundance, weight, finish all terms used sometimes with derogatory and sometimes with laudative intonation, or at any rate valued by one auditor and depreciated by another. The prose fiction of my decade is the work of CHB, this pair of authors.
