S. n. s. l. s. d. circa 1920 27 x 22 cm deux pages sur deux feuilles Autograph letter dated and signed by the dandy count 20 lines on 2 pages written in black ink about friendship and certain constraints that his correspondent seems to encounter probably his friend Henri Lapauze: ""Cher ami puisque vous souffrez c'est vous qu'il faut plaindre ; puisque je souris ce n'est pas moi qu'il faut blâmer. Votre souffrance vient de ne pas faire ce que vous voulez ; donc votre vindicte doit viser qui vous contraint. Ce que mes yeux ont vu aura comme suite conséquente ce que mes oreilles ont entendu on l'a écrit plaisamment. Il faut fournir à ces tomes là. Vous pensez bien que votre logique et votre justice ne visent qu'à établir les responsabilités. Car nous nous estimons au dessus de la louange mais pas au dessus de l'amitié. J'étais heureux de vous attester la mienne. Je le suis davantage de vous l'avoir témoignée. Votre Montesquiou."" ""Dear friend since you suffer it is you who must be pitied; since I smile it is not I who should be blamed. Your suffering comes from not doing what you want; therefore your vindication must target whoever constrains you. What my eyes have seen will have as a consequent sequel what my ears have heard it has been written pleasantly. We must provide for those volumes there. You well think that your logic and your justice aim only to establish responsibilities. For we consider ourselves above praise but not above friendship. I was happy to attest mine to you. I am even more so to have shown it to you. Yours Montesquiou."" S. n. unknown

L'opération a redéclenché les symptomes de mes supplices de la Belle et la Bête. Les médécins s'y perdent et je vais être tenu de changer de climat.

I am going through a very painful health crisis. The operation has triggered again the symptoms of my torments from Beauty and the Beast. The doctors are at a loss and I will have to change climate.

195376377Paris: s. n. 1953. Fine. s. n. Paris s. d. ca 1953 21 x 27 cm 11 feuillets rédigés au recto Manuscript partly unpublished of an article on cabaret nine pages plus two additional pages written in purple ink on perforated squared paper sheets. Numerous deletions and corrections as well as several additions. The sheets are numbered in the upper right margin from 1 to 9 then 12 and 13. The first nine sheets of this text which was never published during Boris Vian's lifetime were transcribed in Les Vies posthumes de Boris Vian by Michel Fauré 1975. The text was erroneously dated 1948 by Fauré: the mention of Samuel Beckett's En attendant Godot whose premiere took place in 1953 makes this dating impossible. An interesting text evoking cabarets and the ""troglodytes"" a fine echo to the famous Manuel de Saint-Germain-des-Prés 1951: ""Let us give back to Saint-Germain-des-Prés what rightfully belongs to it: besides a certain tonnage provided to journalists short of copy this much-decried district - by those who precisely only knew it in its journalistic aspect - is at the origin of the profound transformation of cabaret. Yes there was indeed a reason why intelligent people like Sartre Prévert Camus Merleau-Ponty etc. in short all those who today count in literature or the arts followed with such attention the great movement of the cellars despite the turbulence of the troglodytes and the incongruity of the photographer monkeys despite the muddled activity of a generation of illiterate and boorish journalists despite the vacant curiosity of the gawker and the bitter resentment of the chamber pot emptiers of rue Dauphine."" After briefly evoking jazz a subject on which he is usually dithyrambic Boris Vian devotes the greater part of his text to theater: ""Jazz on one side carved out with great trumpet blows a place in the shade on the engine room side; that is its true environment: a smoky cellar a back room a dark laboratory where the faithful gather. . The musicians finally relaxed. But for their part the actors did not remain inactive."" Visionary Vian senses ""in the air a scent of renewal"" understanding the importance that cabaret theater would assume in the years to come. Two sheets not transcribed in Fauré's work evoke the theatrical avant-garde of the early 1950s: ""And it is no accident if En attendant Godot Samuel Beckett's astonishing play is a clown entrance that lasts two hours deals with nothing in particular poses all problems wrests laughter at the moment when one should be terrified . And it is no accident if the principal interpreter of Beckett's work this pillar of avant-garde theater is a cabaret veteran."" s. n. unknown
195080910s. l. Klarskovgaard 1950. Fine. s. l. Klarskovgaard 17 novembre 1950 21 x 34 cm 2 pages sur un feuillet Autograph letter signed with the initials of Louis-Ferdinand Céline addressed to his lawyer Master Thorvald Mikkelsen. Two pages written in blue ink on a large sheet of white paper; number ""568"" in Céline's hand in red pencil at the top left. Transversal folds inherent to mailing. This letter was very partially transcribed in Année Céline 2005. Early November 1950 Gaby Paul had come to visit Céline and Lucette at Klarskovgaard: ""Oh mille mercis à Mme Christensen pour son aimable repas qui réchauffé fit nos délices ! Et puis aussi gratitudes pour tout le soin qu'elle a pris de Mme Gen Paul !. Laquelle ne donne aucune nouvelle. Quelle vacherie encore . Comme c'est amusant ! Je crois qu'elle avait des projets ""journalistiques"" mais que mon attitude l'a désenchantée. """"Oh a thousand thanks to Madame Christensen for her kind meal which reheated was our delight! And also gratitude for all the care she took of Mme Gen Paul!. Who gives no news. What nastiness again. How amusing! I believe she had 'journalistic' projects but my attitude disenchanted her."" Céline also mentions the Swedish writer Ernst Bendz one of the few to defend Céline alongside Paraz: ""Une lettre amusante de Bendz ! Bendz appartient vraiment à l'aristocratie des esprits ! La preuve ! La façon qu'il ""m'estime""!!!""""An amusing letter from Bendz! Bendz truly belongs to the aristocracy of minds! The proof! The way he 'esteems me'!!!"" In 1947 Céline pursued by French justice for his collaborationist involvement was confined in Denmark. It was in May 1948 accompanied by Lucette and Bébert that he arrived at his lawyer Master Thorvald Mikkelsen's home at Klarskovgaard. The latter owned a large property by the Baltic Sea and invited the exile to stay there. On February 21 1950 as part of the épuration the writer was definitively sentenced in absentia by the civic chamber of the Paris Court of Justice for collaboration to one year of imprisonment which he had already served in Denmark. The Swedish Consul General in Paris Raoul Nordling intervened on his behalf with Gustav Rasmussen Danish Foreign Minister and managed to delay his extradition. On April 20 1951 Jean-Louis Tixier-Vignancour his lawyer since 1948 obtained Céline's amnesty under the title of ""severely disabled veteran of the Great War"" by presenting his file under the name Louis-Ferdinand Destouches without any magistrate making the connection. Céline would leave Denmark the following summer after three years spent at his lawyer's home. unknown

191480879Alger Algiers 1914. Fine. Alger Algiers s. d. ca 1914 13.70 x 18 cm 6 pages sur un double feuillet et un feuillet simple Autograph letter signed by Judith Gautier addressed to Céleste Chrétien her maid. Four pages written in black ink on a double sheet. Transverse folds inherent to mailing. Judith Gautier here evokes the visit of her friend the musician Chalmers Clifton - whom she liked to nickname Charmeur - to Dinard: ""Mr Clifton received yesterday Sunday a telegram which told him to book Villa Mitsou for August and September in the name of Ni Liao."" She also asks Celeste for additional information about a maid she recommended to her: ""Tell me again about the cleaning woman. Is she . a good cook how much does she ask for Is it only for the season"" A lover of animals she then gives some advice on how to pamper them: ""For the blackbirds you must crush the hemp seed very fine and crush in the same manner bread crust. This is the foundation of their diet but they eat almost everything bread in milk minced meat cooked or raw cherries strawberries grapes a little bit of young snail cut in pieces flies and especially mealworms and ant eggs fresh they adore them plenty of water always something to bathe in."" She also mentions one of her pets: ""My bat is still doing well. I am searching in vain for a little female for it."" ""A poor bat found itself one summer day stuck in a ""fly-catcher"" . The poor creature was struggling desperately. Judith unstuck it with cologne water put it in a small pantry and it lived there eighteen months. It lost its bat habits slept at night awake during the day it drank water from a shell lapping it like a little horse.""

190885175Toulon 1908. Fine. Toulon 4 Août1908 13.50 x 21.50 cm 16 pages sur quatre doubles feuillets une enveloppe Very long autograph letter signed by Claude Farrère approximately 260 lines in blue ink 16 pages on four double sheets to his friend Pierre Louÿs. Fold marks inherent to postal dispatch envelope included. Claude Farrère mentions the letter he received from his friend and the one he has just sent him: ""I was writing to you on that same Friday a blood-colored letter. a glowing letter devoid of all composure."" He returns with humor to the quarrel between Pierre Louÿs and a certain Augusto probably Auguste Babut de Rosan for which he thought himself responsible: ""Note well dear friend that I was persuaded deep down despite your mutual denials of my personal influence in your quarrel. Human vanity never misses such opportunities. And it is with some shame that I confess to having believed myself for two good days to be the pivot of the world."" Claude Farrère castigates his own candor and lack of discernment: ""Although I am as prudent as you know me to be I am constantly caught red-handed. . the young divorced woman I once showed you at the cinema had the imprudence to arrange to meet me in deserted streets. the child's father a senior officer as befits encountered us there."" sensing that this naivety will eventually play tricks on him: "". it will end badly. I practice fencing every time I think about it."" Since he has just received his friend Pierre Louÿs's missive he continues writing his letter to respond to him and is astonished by what he has just read: ""So when four or five days later I find your first telegram 'am quarreling' with - for a reason you can guess."" I remain stupefied and rack my brain in vain. Having not guessed I suppose. I suppose wrongly. Bewilderment. I received last week seventy-five letters of which about twenty concerned you closely or distantly."" In this tangle of bruised and torn friendships Claude Farrère also describes the great dismay of another of their mutual friends a certain V who finally enlightens the writer about the misunderstanding opposing Louÿs and Babut de Rosan: ""Thereupon sudden change in V. He was more than struck. I saw him on the verge of suicide. He immediately pulls himself together regains his composure jumps on a train. And while waiting for departure time he resumes his account. and I understand."" Here Claude Farrère is almost relieved and reassured: ""Now I believe I have understood. Not quite everything. That I meddled in what did not concern me. I ask your pardon for it my friend and beg you to forget it. Your affection is so dear to me that I would be abominably unhappy to feel it cooled even by a single degree! Tell me if I must fear this and tell me so in earnest."" but still as sad for Augusto: ""Augusto is at this moment almost mad with grief because he believes your friendship lost to him. I deeply pity this poor child."" A very fine letter symbolizing the torments of the tumultuous friendships in Pierre Louÿs and Claude Farrère's circle. unknown
