Madam, - It has been drawn to my attention that in the course of a review of Invoking Ireland by John Moriarty, (Books, April 1st), Paul Durcan states that, between about 1960 and a radio broadcast in 1985, the words and presence of John Moriarty were lost to the world.

For the sake of the historical record I would like to remind Mr Durcan and your readers that a lengthy piece (of some 10,000 words) by Moriarty entitled Imago was published under my editorship in Structure magazine, volume 3 no 1, in 1975. - Yours, etc,
