Handwritten draft letter by Cavafy to a recipient with an illegible name (possibly "Per.", therefore it may be to Pericles Anastasiadis) on both sides of two ruled sheets. Comments on the language he uses in his work and on the process of composition he follows; references to poems of his. Abbreviations, cancellations and emendations.

Handwritten prose text by Cavafy, written on the recto of four sheets numbered at top right. Blank verso. Placed inside a double sheet notepaper with handwritten title and indication of place (Alexandria) and date on the first page. The remaining pages are blank. The same poem, comprising three stanzas, is repeated at the beginning and the end of the text. Signed "Const. F. Cavafy" on the last page.
