Élie WIESEL

First edition, of which there were no deluxe copies.
Handsome copy.
Autograph inscription signed by Elie Wiesel to Catherine David: "... car je me rappelle un petit-déjeuner si lointain..." ["for I remember such a distant breakfast..."]
Novelist, essayist, literary critic, pianist, Catherine David was a pioneer of ideas journalism at Le Nouvel Observateur. Laurent Joffrin, former director of the newspaper, offered this beautiful funeral tribute in the January 4, 2023 issue: "... Her passions were eclectic, from music to tai chi, from philosophy to hybrid disciplines, at the crossroads of science and spirituality. Her books bear this mark, a brilliant variation on movement (la Beauté du geste), an essay on Simone Signoret, a spirited biography of Pico della Mirandola, the man of all knowledge, and several volumes of interviews with Stephen Jay Gould, Jean Delumeau, Hubert Reeves or Christiane Desroches Noblecourt.
Such an itinerary could have created an irritating character, Saint-Germain-des-Prés style, floating above ordinary mortals in the limbo of thought and intellectual-chic society. Catherine was quite the opposite, a good friend, living with simplicity and camaraderie, cultivating the art of being a grandmother, with laughter and watchful attention..."

Novelist, essayist, literary critic, pianist, Catherine David was a pioneer of opinion journalism at Le Nouvel Observateur. Laurent Joffrin, former editor of the newspaper, offering this fine funeral tribute in the January 4, 2023 issue: "... Her passions are eclectic, from music to tai chi, from philosophy to hybrid disciplines, at the frontiers of science and spirituality. Her books bear this mark, a brilliant variation on movement (la Beauté du geste), an essay on Simone Signoret, a spirited biography of Pico della Mirandola, the man of all knowledge, and several volumes of interviews with Stephen Jay Gould, Jean Delumeau, Hubert Reeves or Christiane Desroches Noblecourt.
Such an itinerary could have composed an irritating character, germanopratin, floating above ordinary mortals in the limbo of thought and intellectual chic worldliness. Catherine was quite the opposite, a good friend, living in simplicity and camaraderie, cultivating the art of being a grandmother, in laughter and vigilant attention..."
