My dear Bramharajan,

Your warm letter dated 14th was received by me on Saturday with great pleasure. Though I write to you in English, you please continue to write letters in Tamil.

Apart from the letters you have mentioned I had also written to you a letter along with a Polish short story “Children” by Mrozek. I hope you have received by this time. Please confirm the receipt of the letter.

P. S. 1. Yesterday I received the latest July-August 1982 Indian Literature. A cross section of poets from Bharathi to Vikramadhithan has been represented. Poems are translated by Mr. M. S. Ramaswamy. Your three poems Known Eternity, The Second Refuge and Monologue I are there. You may be getting the issue redirected. The issue also includes interesting Yugoslav poetry. I feel this is the right time you work on the article you were telling me. It may be prelude to the forthcoming collection.

2. I got a copy of Lotus, a quarterly Magazine publishedby The Afro - Asian Writers.

The Permanent Bureau
104, Kast E1-Aini Street
Cairo, EGYPT

It is a complete Magazine representing Afro-Asian Literature. I suggest You write an article in English on ‘Contemporary Tamil Poetry’ and also send translations of Tamil Poems including your own. The magazine is published in English, French and I think Arabic. It hope you will think and do something about it. You please write to me your views.

3. சதங்கை is bringing a Bumper Annual Issue in a couple of months (say in 2 or 3 months). I think he may cover most of the active writers.
