Dear An. Vas.,

Drop a line to let me know whether you have settled down and are work fit. We are counting on you to write for Proletary 1) letters from Italy twice (roughly) a month, 8,000–12,000 characters. The first in about three weeks’ time. 2) Political feuilletons from time to time. Do you see the Russian papers (Gorky gets a lot of them)?

Write.

Best regards,
Yours,
Starik
