Donna Tartt wrote this on two sheets of paper from a hotel pad, in Capri, during the first days of October, 2014. It appears to be a draft of her thank-you speech for the Premio Malaparte, which she won that year. I tried every keyword variation I could think of to find a record of this speech, but found none; this is, to my knowledge, the only trace of it, found inside a signed copy of The Secret History.
