RENARD Jules (1864 - 1910)
MANUSCRIT autograph signed "Jules Renard", Poil de Carotte.
La Luzerne, [1892]| 3 and a half pages in-4 (slight cracks to folds).
One of the famous Poil de Carotte tales.
The manuscript, which presents some erasures and two corrections, was used for the printing in the Mercure de France (of which it bears the ink stamp) in March 1892. It took its place in 1894 in the collection Poil de carotte, with some variants.
"Poil de Carotte" and "Grand Frère Félix" come back from class and hurry home, because it is time for the four o'clock snack.
Big Brother Felix will have a slice of butter or jam, and Carrot Fur a slice of nothing, because he wanted to be a man too early, and declared, in front of witnesses, that he is not greedy. He likes natural things, usually eats his dry bread with affectation and, this evening again, walks faster than Big Brother Felix, in order to be served first. Sometimes the dry bread seems hard. Then Poil de Carotte throws himself on it, as one attacks an enemy, grabs it, gives it blows of teeth, blows of head, breaks it up, makes fly splinters, and, ranged around him, his parents look at him with curiosity"... Etc.
