Jules SUPERVIELLE (1884-1960). 2 L.A.S., January 10, 1924 and Saturday, to Jacques Rivière; 2 pages in-8 each (binder holes with slight lack of text).

Dazed, he had forgotten that Rivière had already left and he came to see him the day before "to tell you how happy I was with Crémieux's review of L'Homme de la Pampa published in the N.R.F. and I did not say anything to you about it," whereas Rivière had told him before the publication "things that are quite precious to me now that I have read them.

I was waiting with great curiosity for your impressions of my new poem and I am very pleased that the first contact was favorable. [...] I owe you very high and very delicate joys and would like to be able to speak to you about them better"...
