"Quels conseils donnez-vous à François Mitterrand ?"

Autograph letter signed addressed to Thierry Maulnier (28 lines in blue ink on a recto-verso sheet with letterhead from éditions de La table ronde).
Central folds inherent to postal handling.
The publisher inquires about Thierry Maulnier and his wife, the theater actress Marcelle Tassencourt: "Are you preparing beautiful things? What advice are you giving François Mitterrand?"
Roland Laudenbach also discusses literary current events and awarded prizes: "... some of your colleagues are, seem terrible... [...] but you may have another candidate... [...] Ah! We are going to publish François Sentein's journal. Courageous, no?"
