Dear Ms. Sinkler:
Thank you for
your courtesy in responding so quickly to my letter regarding
the confusion surrounding inquiries about a review of
my tenth novel, The Miraculous Day of Amalia Gómez.
I appreciate your telephone call.
I asked you
at the time--and my memory is that you graciously agreed--whether
you or someone on your staff would be good enough to let
me know, directly or through my agent or my publisher
and editor, whether a review of my novel will appear in
your pages. That way I'll be able, finally, to put this
matter to rest and in perspective.
Obviously,
after all this, I'm hoping there will be a positive resolution.
Again, thank you for your appreciated courtesy.
Sincerely,
John Rechy
