Transcript
  • Thursday May 12 June 13 Two more drafts of Moments in Never . Tore up A Foreign Land ; no good. Posada: men now working downstairs also. Planned guillotine window for kitchen. Claudius Film Version all morning. In afternoon to Cala with Pepe to plan roof for boat house: bathed; a few stones brought up. Telegram from Harrison Smith about announcing Fool of Rome for November. Replied, agree. No letters To Margarita's with Laura (her Julie dress) & to approve Pepe's ancient sink for Posada. Gelat came: we decided to tell Pepe that no more work until water settled: to force masons, workmen carpenters etc to anger with Médico. Did so. In village, Emmerich's nephew-in-law & his silent friend. Blackberries turning: two nectarines, eaten by Laura. Slept with sheet only.
