Claude SIMON

Lettre tapuscrite signée de Claude Simon à René Wintzen

Sabres 15 novembre 1967, 21x27cm, 1 page sur une feuille.


Typed letter signed by Claude Simon to René Wintzen, signature in black ink.
Date and place at the top of the letter and signature at the bottom of the letter. Parisian addresses of Claude Simon and his correspondent.
Folding caused by mailing.
Claude Simon writes this letter to René Witzen to respond to an invitation to participate in a symposium at the Maison de la Culture in Bourges on the theme "Literature and Document". He expresses his refusal because he does not want to "accredit these kinds of companies". Indeed, according to him, "the burlesque coupling of these two words ( novel and document ) can not cover (just like the term cinema-truth ) a commercial object manufactured by relying on the inculture and the laziness of a naively eager public to "get information while being distracted", and where the mystified reader can find neither novel nor document. "
