About This Item
Baltimore: Roger Zelazny, 1973. First Edition. First Edition. Roger Zelazny. Roger Zelazny, TYPED LETTER SIGNED (TLS). One sheet of stationery, measuring 8 1/2" x 11". Typed on cream coloured stock, small stain, signed "Roger" in black pen, dated June 14, 1973 discussing his lectures, The Amber series and how it will probably take up 5 books. A very insightful letter.
"June 14, 1973
Dear Charlie,
Yes, you heard correctly. It is the weekend of July 14 & 15 that I will be lecturing at Berkeley -- a seminar offering called "Science Fiction: Myth Reborn". It will entail a number of speakers -- a couple English Professors, a Jungian analyst, a couple sociologists who have been using sf anthologies as texts for intro. soc. courses and a U. of Chicago Philosophy Prof, last I heard. My travel plans aren't really set yet, though. I mean, I don't know whether I'll be bringing Judy along and staying a couple weeks, or just flying out, giving the talks and returning directly to Baltimore. It all depends on a number of possible things that will be doing locally. In any event, I will let you know as soon as I know myself -- which will probably not be until after my return from Indiana
and Ohio, subsequent to July 4. As to the next Amber book, I plan to begin writing it after my
return from California. At the moment, I see the story as taking up about five books. That is about everything I can think of at the moment. Oh , I did a two-hour stint on a local talk-show last nite (WCBM) : space program, sf and writing in general -- a broadcast version of the usual con-panel stuff, with questions & answers. So . . . I'll let you know more about the trip before too long.
Bests ,
Roger
