Description
[Transcription/translation]
29 January 1970
Dear Dr Hodin!
No, I’m afraid I must still refuse! I know exactly what I want, and I certainly don’t want what’s on offer! Taking everything is not for me. I’ll take what seems right in my case. I’m entitled to my opinion. Still, I thank you for your interest nonetheless. Please let me know when you are in possession of Ludwig’s work. Ludwig is exhibiting now, and I’m glad about that. I shall only continue with the biography once you have his work.
Kind regards from your bull in a china shop!
Else Meidner
