MICHAUX Henri. Plume précédé de Lointain intérieur
Nrf, Paris 1938, 11,5 x 18,5 cm, Bradel binding
First edition in parts, of which there were no grand papier (deluxe) copies, an advance [service de presse] copy.
Marbled paper Bradel binding, maroon morocco title piece, covers and spine (repaired) preserved, top edge gilt.
Handsome autograph inscription signed by Henri Michaux “à Georges Bataille, amical hommage [to Georges Bataille, friendly wishes]”.
Jean-Pierre Martin in his biography of Michaux states that the two writers only met during the Second World War. This copy, however, allows us to suppose that they had maintained friendly relations since 1938.
After the war, the two would participate in the magazine Mesures and drifted away from the Surrealist orbit. Their work shows a violent independence and the same tension vis-a-vis spirituality, or a form of mysticism.
Rare early testimony of a literary friendship between Henri Michaux and Georges Bataille.
