Letter, Anna de Noailles, Paris, France, to Edgar Lafon, Angoulême, France, 1920 November 29

 File — Box: 1, Folder: 23
Identifier: MSE/MD 2819-23

Scope and Contents

From the notes of Dr. Catherine Perry: Edgar Lafon was evidently a friend of Noailles. He lived in the Toulouse area and was a university professor. In April 1923, he published an article on Noailles, "La poésie de la comtesse de Noailles," in a short-lived journal titled Feuilles au Vent. He also published in La Revue chrétienne. In this letter Noailles thanks him for his moving letter. She announces that he will receive her next volume of poems and that she is sending a small anthology to his correspondent who became, thanks to Lafon, a sympathizer (of Noailles).
