Press Cuttings 1978", 1978-1980

An old phone book with newspaper clippings, essays and other ephemera pasted to its pages. Items of note include an autograph letter, signed from Deirdre Bair, concerning her new book, Samuel Beckett: A Biography ; the letter is written on the back of a press release from Harcourt, Brace, and Jovanovich, publishers of the book. Laid in the scrapbook is the original book jacket for the Beckett biography, published in 1978. Also of interest is a typed letter, signed from Bair, responding to Coffey's argument that the Beckett book jacket is "all wrong"; dated January 23, 1978
