Description
[Manuscripts] André SALMON (1881–1969), writer, poet, novelist, journalist and art critic.
- A three-page, signed autograph manuscript in-8, dedicated to the poet André Mary. The manuscript, intended for printing, contains a few crossings-out and corrections, as well as numerous marginal notes in pencil.
“In the course of this delightful book, which lovers of poetry will wish to read, André Mary confides in our unforgettable master Jean Moréas. André Mary overlooked the great poet’s dark moods (...) Yet he did take to heart the lesson of Moréas, who was also the poet of *Le Pélerin Passionné*. André Salmon.”
Attached is a second, unsigned manuscript of a poem entitled ‘Le Pendu’, consisting of 10 quatrains, also intended for printing and bearing marginal notes in pencil. (2 leaves, in-8, numbered 2 and 3).
