A reply to a sympathetic letter of Professor Przemyslaw Mroczkowski in Kraków. Tolkien hopes that his friend has recovered from an operation, though Tolkien notes that he has said very little about himself. The letter he received had taken a long time to arrive.
Tolkien and Edith have both been ill and he also mentions some other distressing family matters,Christopher and his first wife had seperated.[1] and talks about the passing of C.S. Lewis.
Excerpts and pictures of the letter were published in Christie's Fine Printed Books and Manuscripts 1 June 2009 and Christie's Valuable and Important Books and Manuscripts from the Library of Edward R. Leahy 6 October 2022.
