Description

8vo. 1½ pp. on bifolium. To a colleague, concerning the publication of a short story by the journal "Le Gaulois", a process which seems, in de Pènes words, as difficult as making a camel go through the eye of a needle, which is why received short stories have been piling up for two years in Henry de Pène's drawer: "Faire passe une nouvelle au Gaulois fut-elle chef d'oeuvre est presque aussi difficile que de faire passe un chameau par le trou d'une aiguille. J'en ai un tiroir plein, de nouvelles, que j'ai reçues depuis deux ans pour la plupart et pour lesquelles il est toujours causé qu'il se fera un jour entre deux romans [.]". - With lithographic letterhead.
