Kiev

Mother dearest,

I am glad that you are feeling a little more at ease— the main thing is for our detainees to keep well.[1] In view of the large number of arrests they may simply have been caught in the dragnet....

Send me Mark Timofeyevich’s address, I shall have some literary business for him. He is in St. Petersburg. Did you receive Nadya’s letter, she wrote to you recently. My address: Geneva, Chemin privé du Foyer, 10.

Yours,
V.
