    If there is a preface, which I cannot find on google. Perhaps the preface is in the edition that your teacher told you to buy, which, as is clear, is a new edition, and therefore has a scholarly preface by some academic.

    Hello, Mesange.
    Strange that we don't have it here.
    This will take you there straightaway: The Ladder - American Preface.
    You can read the majority of his works at the Ladder, including all of the Prefaces (they have their own seperate section), though I would in general advise looking for the LitNet version first, as the font at the Ladder is kind of ugly, and the text is full of hyperlinks.
