‎Très interessante lettre sur la poèsie féminine: Il la remercie de son livre qu'il a lu "avec un vif plaisir" et il en fait une longue analyse critique, soulignant "la sincérité si évidente", la "forme parfois su gracieuse et délicate" mais aussi parfois, les traits un peu faibles ou les réminiscences hugoliennes ou autres - "Vous trouverez peut être bizarre que je vous loue d'exprimer ces sentiments de femmes de façon féminine" - Mais pour lui, les femmes artistes ont rarement ce don, soit parce qu'elles ne le laissent pas paraitre, soit "parce qu'elles veulent à tout prix montrer des qualités viriles" - "Les femmes poètes vraiment femmes, comme Mme Desbordes Valmore, sont une chose délicieuse pour nous" -‎

Envoi signé : « To Francis Ambrière, from Carson Mc Cullers ».‎

‎Révélation littéraire de l'année, Le Coeur est un chasseur solitaire est publié aux États-Unis en 1940. Roman étourdissant sur l'adolescence, il se situe dans l'Amérique des années 1930, au fin fond d'une bourgade étouffante du Sud faulknérien où John Singer, un mystérieux sourd-muet qui, malgré son infirmité, sert de confident à une jeune fille égarée dans des rêves trop chimériques. Une œuvre largement autobiographique et hantée par l'attente - d'un départ ou d'une rencontre, susceptible de rompre l'étouffante monotonie des jours - à laquelle elle donnera un écho cinq ans plus tard avec Frankie Addams (The Member of the Wedding). C'est ensuite sa rencontre avec Tennessee Williams, puis avec celui qui va devenir (deux fois) son mari et avec lequel elle part voyager en Europe, au moment où son livre paraît en France. Le couple viendra s'installer définitivement en 1952, dans l'Oise, à Bachivillers, dans un presbytère situé à une cinquantaine de kilomètres de hameau de Bonvillers où, presque au même moment, un certain Francis Ambrière a emménagé : la dédicace présente dans le volume est probablement la trace de ce voisinage, à moins qu'elle ne soit strictement du premier voyage de 1947. À ce moment là, Francis Ambrière a reçu depuis quelques mois le Prix Goncourt pour ses Grandes vacances, récompensant officiellement l'année 1940, le prix ayant été « suspendu » cette année-là. Le récit s'impose face au Sacrifice du matin de Pierre Guillain de Bénouville et à L'Univers concentrationnaire de David Rousset, deux autres livres issu d'une pré-sélection thématique qui est une exception dans le palmarès du Goncourt, destinée cette année là à honorer les combattants de la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Pour la petite histoire, notons que c'est dans le roman d'Ambrière qu'apparaît l'expression « sucrer les fraises », même si, à l'origine, c'est Louis-Ferdinand Céline qui, en 1936, a utilisé « sucrer » pour désigner les tremblements d'un ivrogne, dans Mort à crédit : « Il marchait à tout petits pas […]. Il tremblotait dans la serrure. Il pouvait plus sortir la clef, tellement qu'il sucrait ». Francis Ambrière y a rajouté les fraises à propos de tremblements séniles, la locution étant ensuite passée à la postérité. Elle sera reprise notamment immédiatement par Marcel Aymé dans Le Vin de Paris, en 1947 (« pauvre Achille, je me rappelle, il s'était mis à sucrer les fraises par là deux ans avant sa mort »).‎

‎New York NY U.S.A.: Walker & Company 2001. 1st edition with complete number line beginning with 1. Fine in fine dust jacket not price clipped in protective mylar cover. Beautiful copy. SIGNED COPY signature only by the author on the title page. "Alix who owns a gallery in Jackson Hole Wyo. agrees to help stage an art auction to benefit wildlife conservation in the Yellowstone-Grand Teton ecosystem. Planning the auction raises longstanding simmering conflicts between ranchers and environmentalists to a fast boil. Two events involving a wolf bring the environmental fight to a head: a local ranchhand who shoots a wolf faces prosecution under the Endangered Species laws while a reclusive artist whom Alix represents has contributed to the auction a haunting portrait of a wolf a painting that the committee chair refuses to allow in. The sad-looking wolf on this book's dust jacket lacks the ferociousness of the wolf portrait. The strong feelings that the wolf engenders are backdrop for the actual mystery: the painter concerned about a possible cover-up asks Alix to look into the death of a teenage boy in a hunting accident 25 years ago." -- Publishers Weekly.

"Set in Jackson Wyo. where the Old West merges with upscale art galleries and white-water rafting concessions this lightening-fast adventure has enough false trails to stock a national park. Introduced in The Bluejay Shaman the self-mocking narrator Alix Thorssen "semiprosperous art dealer so-so kayaker single girl thirty-something" faces upheaval and betrayal on all sides. Her gallery and her partnership with the wildly appealing Paolo Segundo seem to be at a crossroads. When a neighboring gallery goes up in a spectacular blaze and the body of a local artist "He was big in the seventies" is found inside Alix is drawn into the case as an appraiser and finds herself wondering why the police were so quick to label the crime arson/suicide. Of course she's right. But not as right as she thinks; what she doesn't know nearly kills her and does kill someone close to her. As Alix pursues an investigation that ultimately pits her professional self-interest against her ethics." -- Publishers Weekly. First Edition. Hard Cover. New/As New. Book. Walker & Co Hardcover‎
