Description
MASSON (André). 3 letters addressed to Pascal Pia. [1928]. 3 pages of various sizes, address and envelope. – Friday [15 September]. He’s seen Bataille again…: but I haven’t yet found a way to speak to him about the matter in question – it’s rather embarrassing – and yet that money would come in handy, as I’ve been staying in Marseille for a few days and the windows are large in that part of the country. What I want to tell you, my dear Pia, is that you have nothing to blame yourself for in this matter…
- [19 September], he has a favour to ask of him.
- Le Dattier (via Cavalaire) on Saturday. He did indeed receive the money: Colette and Roland Tual arrived last night; I am delighted with the copy of *Justine*.... He is looking forward to seeing Georges Bataille’s *L’Histoire de l’œil* with eight lithographs by Masson and published by R. Bonnel, and he asks that two copies be passed on to François Baron.
A telegram is enclosed.
