Jimmy’s first months at 250 East Thirty-fifth Street were quiet and lonely. A kind of anticlimax set in, and he found himself unable to write: “I sit down at the typewriter, and a big fat nothing happens,” he complained to Clark Coolidge. Jimmy was also conscious of getting older: “This Friday I’ll be fifty, a fact totally unreal to me. I never thought about getting to be fifty.”
