Jean ANOUILH (1910-1987). L.A.S., Chesnières-sur-Ollon (Swit - Lot 179
Jean ANOUILH (1910-1987). L.A.S., Chesnières-sur-Ollon (Switzerland), [September ? 1960, to Léonce Peillard, director of Livres de France] ; 2 pages in-fol. On a project for a special issue of the monthly Livres de France (October 1960). He thanks for the bibliographical note: "I have never learned so much about myself. The only thing I advise you to delete is Cavalcade d'amour. It is a vague film, with a funny story. It was the time of Nathan and the prodigy producers! - We were only able to publish a vague script re-visited (as they say). ...] if the peacock that slumbers in every writer is delighted to have someone write about his work - (which, by the way, nobody is interested in and is not so urgent) - the man I have the right to be, despite my plays, hates that people talk about him. I let all the nonsense about my miserable youth, my loves, my hatreds - all false - be printed on my work, but at least I do not want to participate in it in any way, even to re-establish the truth". He would even prefer that we give up this issue about him.
