Henri POURRAT La veillée de novembre

Henri POURRAT

François ANGELI

La veillée de novembre

Aux éditions de la cigale, Uzès 1937, 14,5x19,5cm, broché.


New edition printed on higher vellum.
Autograph signed by Henri Pourrat to his auvergne friend Robert Garric: "... this story of a poet who comes from the sun to the light ..."
Reform Catholic, he was the   founder of the "Social Teams" in 1920, which aimed to constitute a social elite and to bring the good word on the confraternity born from the trenches to the workers, in the tradition of the patronages . Simone de Beauvoir, then a student of Robert Garric in philosophy at the Sainte-Marie Institute of Neuilly, remembers him   in his "Memoirs of a young girl":   "Garric appeared; I forgot everything else and myself; the authority of his voice subjugated me. At twenty, he explained, he had discovered in the trenches the joys of camaraderie that removed social barriers. [...] To deny all the limits and all the separations, to leave my class, to leave my skin: this slogan electrified me. [...] My life must serve! It is necessary that in my life all serve! "
Illustrated book of original woods by François Angeli.
Marginal stings in the middle of the first board.
