H.G. Wells : The Plattner Story and Others
'I send you my affectionate thanks for the book ["The Plattner Story and Others"] and for the terms of the inscription on the fly-leaf; for the more I know of you--in our inconclusive talks--the more I feel that such should be the terms of our intercourse. I've of course read the book more than once. You get hold of one by your immense power of presentation, by your capacity to give shape, colour, aspect to the invisible.[...] ' Hence follows about twenty lines of appreciative comment and some negative criticism of one of the stories "The Cone".
