David Marr (27 Jun 1991 – ‘I’ve now seen the PW [Patrick White] book […]. I took the first copy round to show Manoly. […] Even though it was cold we had tea on the terrace and M started telling me things I wish I had in the book. He talked about meeting Patrick: that first night they went out for a meal. M said, ‘I found I could talk to him. He understood what I was saying and I understood him […]. We talked for hours. He made me happy at once, and I think I made him happy.’ I’d have given pages of my own prose to have ‘He made me happy at once…’;
