__________________________________________
Dear Sir, I am leaving Cabris for the Vosges these days and I am sorry to miss you again. I will have to visit your country, almost unknown to me. No response from my publisher, although I have contacted him again. If Éditions de Minuit accepts it, that would be great . Let me know and I will retrieve your manuscript.
War? Yes, I would be desperate, but not discouraged, I think. We are now familiar with the worst. That helps us to continue fighting. Your faithful Albert Camus.
