To Barney Rosset, Grove Press, 25 June 1953: "With regard to the novels my position is that I should greatly prefer not to undertake the job myself, while having the right to revise whatever translation is made. But I know from experience how much more difficult it is to revise a bad translation than to do the thing oneself. ... I translated myself some years ago two very brief fragments for Georges Duthuit's Transition. If I can get hold of the number in which they appeared I shall send it to you." -The Letters of Samuel Beckett: 1941-1956, p. 385
