COCTEAU Jean (1889 - 1963)
3 L.A.S. "Jean", 1925 - 1926, to Jean BOURGOINT| 1 page in-4 each, 2 envelopes.
Beautiful and tender correspondence to the young man who will inspire him
Les Enfants terribles.
[Paris end of December 1925]. "My dear petitours, I have just had a great sadness and I am still very tired. I am going to Villefranche to put a stop to this terrible life in which I am the wreckage supporting our shipwrecked crew. [...] My little angel in the blue suit, I think of you, the only one, the best. Without you everything would be too heavy - even Maurice's vocation [SACHS, who converted to Catholicism for a while] - but your eye, your smile, your letters hang cork, open magical parachutes. [...] The surrealists pursue me with a new form of hatred: they pity me, like a "poor guy". To continue, to write, seems to me beyond human strength"... - Hotel Welcome in Villefranche-sur-Mer, [January 2, 1926]. "Dear petitours, here I am in our refuge - after this nightmare Paris. Here happiness is in the void - all we ask for is the window open on the American battleship.
The sailors go around sewn into their skirts". Glenway WESCOTT confessed his love for Bourgoint to her... "I always take refuge in you, on your blue shoulder"... He adds on the back that the hotel bar is "transformed into a dance hall with Kiki as star"... - [Villefranche-sur-
Mer, 1926]. "Jeannot my dear little angel, your little cards are falling from the sky. [...] Heurtebise was brand new in the harbor this morning, in his christening suit"...
