...Place de la Concorde-this was Lewis' brilliant idea-the only place in the world safe from being overheard. The treaty was mysteriously dropped through the letter slot at the Tribune, wrapped in a piece of Chinese silk (some say a kimono). It would have been treasonable to publish the treaty, but Hunt got Senator Borah to start reading it for the Congressional Record, and a minute later the presses started rolling...
...manuscripts critical of Communist life with the aid of an emigre organization devoted to the overthrow of the Soviet government.

In his tight, clear script he filled notebook after notebook with the history of his poems-when the idea was first set down, how long he sat on it, how he cleaned up the various versions, what he chose to publish and what he left out. Such matters may seem too arcane for all except literary note-pickers, but for those who remember Thomas as a presence and his Collected Poems for some of the best written in recent decades. The Notebooks help to explain the evolution...
