‘Keep up the good work . . .’

‘Congratulations on your Index – and on the inclusion of the piece about Elizabeth Taylor in the last issue. It’s curious how for many years her work was little known – I remember Kingsley Amis deplored this neglect of “one of the finest novelists of her and our time.” She was pretty good at short stories too, of course. Keep up the good work.’ R. Cordero, Kent
