Leonard Woolf to Saxon Sydney-Turner, 27 August 1906:
'I am camping out in a tent in the wilderness. I told you I believe I was coming for a month as A[ssistant]G[overnment]A[gent] Mannar. I am now on circuit which means that I ride about 10 miles each day through a desolation of sand to visit a few huts which are called villages [...] I ride through the sand from 6 A.M. to 9 & lie in my tent during the heat of the day & read Dickens whom of course I now consider the greatest of novelists. At any rate he is astonishingly amusing in Kaddukkarankudiyiruppu (which means the village of the man of the Jungle).'
