To Thomas McGreevy, 9 June 1936:  “I wrote a fierce stinger to Reavey last night.  . . .   [He sent] me prospectus of the Eluard poems. Thorns of Thunder !!! I object to my name appearing near such an abomination. I object to Mr Read’s bloody preface. I object to the suggestion conveyed by the blurb that I am performing at the new Burlington BAVE. I was not consulted on any of these matters. Blast his little Antrim Road Soul.” The Letters of Samuel Beckett: 1929-1940, pp 339-344
