The Letterwriter
“If I am out of my mind, it’s all right with me,” thought Moses Herzog. Some people thought he was cracked and for a time he himself had doubted that he was all there. But n0w, though he still behaved oddly, he felt confident, cheerful, clairvoyant and strong. He had fallen under a spell and was writing letters to everyone under the sun.” – Saul Bellow
The quotation is from Bellow’s novel Herzog, which is one of my favourites. The quotation will head a category on my website where I will post some of the many letters I’ve written over the years and new ones. I’m trying to freshen up, while waiting for word on to extant manuscripts.
