Dear Lady Izdihar,
Tonight I saw your thing on YouTube about your difficulties finding a copy of The Soviets Expected It. I found it precisely because I have been stewing, as I get older, about what to do with with my Anna Louise things. The best stuff I sent to the archive at the UW about 15 years ago— a poem she wrote in the back of a philosophy textbook from her time at the University of Chicago, by Baldwin if I recall, about her desire to hike on Mt. Rainier; and a scrapbook I found at a garage sale in the former home of her father, Sydney, on Queen Anne Hill sometime in the 80s. It was not signed anywhere but this collection had, for example, articles from the Post Intelligenser in 1919 referring to hate mail she had received after her famous poem in the Union Record, complete with the actual letter and envelope. So it must certainly have been hers, or her dad’s. Anyway, to the point: I actually have two copies of The Soviets Expected It, for which I would dearly love to find a home. One is hardback, and one paper, both from Dial Press, 1941. I would be delighted to send one or both to you if you are still searching. I note that I would like to keep one long enough to reread once more before parting ways. I also have 10 other books in good condition, of which the only one you might not easily find is an autographed copy of Ragged Verse, published by the Union Record in 1919. Anyway, I cannot tell you how happy I would he to find an appreciative home for these things, and I would gladly send to you either or both copies of the Soviets Expected It, as well as Ragged Verse. If you were interested in the other, more easily found things, I could send these also, although I would hope in that case that you would share the cost of shipping from Chicago. Or, if they are things you don’t need, maybe you would know someone who does. These things should not be lost. Please let me know. I will be leaving the country in a few days for about 6 weeks, so it might be awhile before I could follow through with any of this. But be assured, it would make me very happy if I could do this. If there is a way to get this message to you with out posting it publicly, that would be great. Thank you, be well, and be strong. Eric
