Re: No Subject



Well here are the details said about the letter in "the ectasy and tragedy":
 
"Glenn was the recipient of many love letters from women who developed a crush on him, but we know of only one such letter that he wrote. It was discovered, in draft form, among his 1980 papers, but is undated and may have been penned at some other time. Nor is it clear whether it was actually sent to the person he was addressing, someone named "Dell/" Perhaps the whole thing was a fantasy. It is interesting to note the analogy to the "Letter to the Immortal Beloved," found in Beethoven's drawer after his death. The identity of the "beloved" in question remains a mystery in both cases."
 
I also find this interesting:

"Glen viewed women with a kind of prepubescent naivete. His fantasies at once exhibited the immaturity of a teenager and the creative sophistication that could come only with his chronological years."  (this is what oswald said)

Please remind us where this letter is quoted from.

Is there anything else known about the woman to whom it was addressed?

Thanks!
