Notebook of Edith Simon, with manuscript notes and draft excerpts concerning a novel, 29 July - 1 November 1952
Scope and Contents
This notebook is a direct successor to Acc.13772 Box 36 (2). It was begun on 29 July 1952 and was completed on 1 November 1952. Simon writes from both ends of the notebook. Also present is a three-page typescript on the subject of 'Eyes.' [This notebook was housed with several others, all of which appear to relate to the same writing project, a proposed book entitled at any one time as 'House of Dreamers', 'The Human Quality', 'House of Strangers' or 'The Life Behind the Stone.' Simon published a book entitled 'The Past Masters' in 1953, which was subsequently published as 'The House of Strangers' in the United States.]
