". je travaille en ce moment dans le silence et n'ai rien de particulier à dire sur mes projets sinon que la Rose de sable roman paraîtra fin 1931."" Signed autograph letter addressed to Christian Melchior-Bonnet
Alger Algiers 1930. Fine. Alger Algiers 18 Octobre 1930 21 x 27 cm une page une enveloppe Autograph letter signed by Henri de Montherlant 26 lines written in blue ink written from Algiers. Folds inherent to mailing envelope included. Having returned from a long stay in Morocco Henri de Montherlant explains his current working method and discusses his upcoming publication projects: "". la Rose de sable roman paraîtra fin 1931 et qu'une édition adaptée pour la jeunesse de mes deux Olympiques sera publiée l'an prochain par Larousse."" "". la Rose de sable a novel will appear at the end of 1931 and that an edition adapted for young people of my two Olympiques will be published next year by Larousse."" He regrets not being able to immediately accommodate Christian Melchior-Bonnet's request for manuscript pages of his works in progress in order to review them in his Nouvelles littéraires: ""Je vous donnerai bien volontiers les quelques feuillets que vous demandez autographes. Mais je n'ai rien ici que les deux états des brouillons de la Rose de Sable et comme je vis dans la crainte de perdre le manuscrit principal que je transporte dans mes déplacements je garde le second."" ""I would gladly give you the few pages you request autographs. But I have nothing here except the two states of the drafts of la Rose de Sable and as I live in fear of losing the main manuscript which I carry with me when I travel I keep the second one."" unknown

". je vous répète que je ne vous avais pas oublié."" Signed autograph letter

""Mon cher Bailly je suis confus et agacé des traverses que vous avez essuyées. Pourquoi n'avez-vous pas téléphoné à Hébertot personnellement puisque votre nom était sur la liste dactylographiée que je lui ai remise et qu'il a sûrement encore Enfin cela est fait. Mais ne m'en veuillez pas je vous répète que je ne vous ai pas oublié. Cordialement. Montherlant."" ""My dear Bailly I am embarrassed and annoyed by the troubles you have encountered. Why didn't you telephone Hébertot personally since your name was on the typed list I gave him and which he surely still has Well it is done. But don't hold it against me I repeat that I have not forgotten you. Cordially. Montherlant."" unknown

"Mais ce qui est le plus important dans la tauromachie c'est qu'elle est une façon d'être une façon de sa tenir devant la vie et par là dépasse bien le jeu de l'arène."" Beautiful signed autograph letter addressed to Robert de Saint-Jean about his vision of bullfighting
Paris 1963. Fine. Paris 11 Mai 1963 13.50 x 20.50 cm une page recto verso une enveloppe Autograph letter signed by Henri de Montherlant 27 lines written in blue ink written from Paris in which he expounds and explains the reasons for his love of bullfighting. Folds inherent to mailing envelope included. Henri de Montherlant shares with his correspondent the emotion provided by a phrase by Julien Green: "". je connaissais par coeur quasiment cette phrase de Green tant j'y avais été sensible. Mais j'avoue n'avoir pas pensé que ""R"" était vous. Raison de plus pour en être touché."" "". I knew by heart almost this phrase by Green so much had it moved me. But I confess I had not thought that ""R"" was you. All the more reason to be touched by it."" He considers having his latest work sent to him: ""Je voudrais bien vous envoyer moi-même le volume d'Espana sagrada si votre libraire ne peut l'avoir j'en demanderai un exemplaire à Wapler."" ""I would very much like to send you myself the volume of Espana sagrada if your bookseller cannot get it I will ask Wapler for a copy."" and seems affected by a false idea that people have about his work ""Le chaos et la nuit"": "". Je suis un peu agaçé qu'on écrive souvent que dans le ""Chaos"" je renie la Tauromachie. Je renie comme tous les aficionades la mauvaise tauromachie. Mais ce qui est le plus important dans la tauromachie c'est qu'elle est une façon d'être une façon de se tenir devant la vie et par là dépasse bien le jeu de l'arène."" "". I am a bit annoyed that people often write that in ""Chaos"" I renounce bullfighting. I renounce like all aficionados bad bullfighting. But what is most important in bullfighting is that it is a way of being a way of standing before life and thereby far transcends the game of the arena."" unknown

Paris: Editions du Trianon 1933. Fine. Editions du Trianon Paris 1933 11.50 x 17.50 cm broché First edition one of 875 numbered copies on vergé de rives paper ours unnumbered. Work illustrated with four copperplate engravings by Charles Guyot. Handsome copy. Important autograph inscription signed by Henri de Montherlant to the woman of letters and philosopher Alice Poirier: ""A Alice Poirier qui trouvera ici Khosröes et de ses compagnons sympathique souvenir de Montherlant."" To Alice Poirier who will find here Khosroes and his companions kind regards from Montherlant. Fervent admirer and lover of Henri de Montherlant whom she nicknamed her ""dear Rilet"" Alice Poirier maintained from 1927 to 1950 an important correspondence with the writer letters to which the latter did not always respond but which he kept to nourish his work. Thus Alice Poirier served as model for the two principal female figures Andrée Hacquebaut and Solange Dandillot of the tetralogy cycle of ""Jeunes filles."" Brilliant doctor of philosophy she was equally close to Pierre Drieu la Rochelle and Jean Paulhan and drew from her epistolary correspondence with her great love in 1955 a largely autobiographical novel entitled Récit de Grete in which Henri de Montherlant appeared under the character of Michel Cabrol.
