Description
The collection consists of 55 letters from Saroyan totaling 153 pages and 36 letters and cards from Weisberg. The letters
are intensely literary and show a side of Saroyan that becomes virtually invisible to documentation after his popular success
in 1934. (Notes taken from dealer Peter B. Howard's description)
Background
Goldie Weisberg was a fellow writer whose work Saroyan had discovered in a literary magzine. Saroyan initiated the correspondence,
which focuses on their respective reading, writing, and work lives.
