For a time when I came out of the hospital I was not up to much, but by May I felt that I had recovered. I gave the Hermon Ould Memorial Lecrure to the PEN club called 'History as an Art'. We were asked to supper afterwards by the Secretary of the Club and I enjoyed indulging my literary hates and loves. In particular, my great hate is Wordsworth. I have to admit the excellence of some of his work - to admire and love it, in fact - but much of it is too dull, too pompous and silly to be borne. Unfortunately, I have a knack of remembering bad verse with ease, so I can puzzle almost anyone who upholds Wordsworth.
