Dear Doctor Canby,
For several months I want to write to you, finally I received your address and care of doing so immediately in order to tell you that I am looking back with the most cordial feelings to the hours I was permitted to spend with you and Mrs. Canby.
I hope to see you in New York in spring. The book I told you about when we met is coming out this week at Querido-Amsterdam (the publisher of Heinrich Mann, Zweig, Feuchtwanger etc.). The English edition will be published at John Lane’s in January, the American one at Morrow’s. The title is probable to be “I was a German”. Besides a collection of seven of my plays will be published in London.
I have been welcomed here with the highest cordiality and feel as well as it is possible in times like these. There is a lot of work to be done for me, besides the private one there are a lot of meetings in favour of the German refugees, especially for writers, intellectuals etc.
I enclose a copy of the address I had at the Young Pen-Club when it chose Heinrich Mann, Feuchtwanger and myself to honourable members.
I happen to be informed that you are arranging lectures at Vassar College for me. It is so kind that you do so and I thank you most cordially.
With best wishes and compliments to Mrs. Canby
Yours,
Ernst Toller.
