Description

AN OUTSTANDING WARTIME LETTER FROM PIERRE LOUŸS TO HIS BROTHER, THE DIPLOMAT GEORGES LOUIS, explaining an amusing incident involving Claudine Roland, Pierre's lover. Written on December 18, 1915, the final page being a postscript from the following day, in which Louys muses on the possibility of a literary career for his lover. 5 pages (two conjugate leaves, plus an additional leaf); about 400 words in very legible script, written in Louÿs' characteristic purple ink. Signed. In perfect condition, with the original stamped and addressed envelope. ***** Louÿs and his half-brother Georges wrote each other on an almost daily basis until Georges' death in 1917. This letter is published as no. 849 in "Mille lettres inédites de Pierre Louÿs à Georges Louis 1890-1917" (Paris, 2002). This was one of the great literary correspondences of the age, and this is an especially interesting letter.
