FLAUBERT Gustave (1821-1880)
Signed autograph letter addressed to Julia, wife of Alphonse DAUDET S.l.n.d., 2 pages in-8 in inkAddressed to
Alphonse Daudet's wife, Julia, with heartfelt words about his recently published book Impressions of Nature and Art, which talks about literature, her husband and his latest book Les Rois en exil and in which he acknowledges that he feels old and weak: "I cannot tell you the pleasure that 'L'enfance d'une Parisienne' has given me. If the word charming wasn't trivial, I'd write it. Without any scientific apparatus, without any overload of colours, without any pretension to ideals or naturalism, you make what you felt feel feel.it sometimes seemed to me, reading you, that I had once been a little girl, playing in the Tuileries, walking in the rue de Rivoli, and living in this good old house with its Empire ornaments and its big cupboards. It's a treat for me who loves Literature per se to read such things. The breed of your style is very noble and very delicate. So artistic, without looking like one! That's the hard part! In your detached thoughts, I found several that struck me as bewildering in their truth and twist, like the one about the water jets. The two verse pieces I like best are 'To my son' and 'The toy room'. And in literary studies, I re-read with a new tickle of self-esteem everything about myself. I won't be able to thank you for another month or six weeks, because I can only take a few more steps in myCabinet. Time doesn't give your husband's novel. What's that for? So tell him (your husband) to write to me. Shake his hand on my behalf, and allow me, Madam, to kiss yours, begging you to believe me to be your most respectful and affectionate servant (and friend).
