Dear Mr. Auden,

    Dr. Kraus is not in Vienna, and I do not know
for certeain whether you have finally agreed to the
date of the presentation for your book:  we would
like to do it on Friday, 28th of September. 20h.
We would like you to read some poems in English,
some others would be read in German by an actor
from the Burgtheater.

    I am going on vacation, but somebody will be in
the office all over the summer. So, please, dconfirm
the date.

                          Sincerely yours,
