Description
Aristide BRUANT (1851–1925). Autograph letter, Moulin de Liffert via Courtenay (Loiret), 24 June 1918, to Mr Touchard; 2 pages, in-8 (mourning format).
To his publisher, who is pressing him: ‘I’m going to have to spoil the ending of a novel that I’ve very conscientiously structured, which holds together well and contains a psychological study of the hold that love exerts, which requires some development. *Cœur cassé* has been well received, as I have already received some flattering congratulations’, and he thanks Touchard for his advice, which has ‘helped me to perfect a good novel’, which he does not wish to rush, ‘as that always makes a bad impression’, and he asks for at least ‘32,000 lines’… [*Cœur cassé* was published in 1921 by Tallandier.]
