You praise my prose, and even now I have no idea whether I write well or not. I do not know. I simply do not know anything at all, except that I loved Ian Morrison and I am still so much in love with him that I cannot bear it.....That is all. I do not know whether I wrote a good or a bad book. It just came.' Suyin writes of her family before again returning to Morrison, 'Ian said that I reminded him of Emily Brontë. Who was Emily Brontë? Was she also the kind of person who finds it hard to forgive and who never forgets anything? I wish I could die. I hope it will happen one day soon. Yet I love to live each moment, but relinquish as each moment goes by. I did not know what it was to be in love. Pao [Pao H. Tang, Chinese General. Tang was Suyin's first husband and died in the Chinese Civil War, 1947] seems so much more comprehensible to me now, because of Ian. I am glad Pao died. He would hate what is happening now. He could never adapt. Ian was marvelous. Sometimes he comes back so strongly that I feel he is not dead, though he is now only a few ashes in Surrey (of all places, to take him to England!)' Accompanied by an envelope from the Jefferson in Washington. A letter of fine content. VG.
