Dear Solovine,

I sent you a thick volume thinking that certain things in it would probably interest you, among them my little quarrels with professional physicists. Soon I shall also send you the new edition of my book with the Appendix which produced so much excitement in the newspapers a few weeks ago even though no one, except the translator, had seen it. This is really amusing: laurels given out in advance! I shall also send you another book containing essays composed at odd intervals as soon as they are printed. It contains the odd exchange of letters between me and the (so-called) Russian academicians.

I hope that life in Paris is gradually becoming tolerable for the non-black marketeers, and that you are well, you and your wife. Our own private life is satisfactory.

Cordial greetings from
Your
