Postcard from Marvin Magalaner, writer and Joyce biographer, Flushing, New York, in which he discusses possible reasons why George Roberts of Maunsel & Co. Ltd, publishers, ‘got cold feet’ when it came to publishing Joyce’s Dubliners. States that some people suspect Roberts’ wife ‘engineered the dumping’. Also notes that previously Grant Richards had refused to publish as he was ‘afraid to stick his neck out’ after the [Oscar] Wilde ‘fiasco’. Suggests to McGrath to try Richard Ellman, a biographer of Joyce.
