He notes that the 'theatre is, always has been, and always must be, a circumscribed formula', advises that she should concentrate on the third act ('In the ideal play the last act is the strongest... get the last act set in your mind or on paper before you begin the first act'), praises Bagnold's 'lovely gift of words... [but] what you need is a Sergeant-Major quality', and tells her to ignore the advice of 'actors and managers and directors [as] they are not dramatists... Oh dear how pompous and bossy I am becoming but you did ask for it and you know how much I love and admire your richness'.The letters from Leonard Woolf, both from 1967, include a discussion on new buildings at Rodmell ('I deplore the pullulation of building everywhere which turns the country and its villages into a vast suburb'), and praise for a letter sent by Bagnold to the Times in which she attacks the Royal Horticultural Society for having no female members on the council.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: •• Zero rated for VAT, no VAT will be added to the Hammer Price or the Buyer's Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
