Part V?

Letter from John Riley to Michael Grant
Leeds, 12 March [1974?]
From MS Add.10000/2

In a gathering of ‘Uncollected’ poems included in The collected works Tim Longville printed fragments associated with drafts of Parts III and IV of Czargrad, but this letter to Michael Grant indicates that at one point Riley was producing work that he envisaged forming a fifth part of the poem. If it survives, it has yet to be identified among Riley’s papers.
