1920ref. 021432Paris 24 November 1920. Letter. Close to Fine. Small 4-1/2" x 6-1/2" AUTOGRAPH LETTER SIGNED "James Joyce" to Madame Yasushi Tanaka Louise Gebhard Cann on blue paper integral with envelope which is addressed in Joyce's hand and postmarked on the verso. In full: "Dear Madam In reply to your letter I shall call on you on Sunday afternoon next as it seems to be the most convenient time for you. Sincerely yours James Joyce." Louise Gebhard Cann was a prominent writer and art critic in early 20th century France. At Ezra Pounds suggestion Cann wrote to Joyce requesting an interview with him for an article on writers in France set to appear in an upcoming issue of THE PACIFIC REVIEW. Following publication of the "Nausicaa" episode of ULYSSES in THE LITTLE REVIEW the previous year Joyces writing was deemed obscene. This particular issue of THE LITTLE REVIEW was effectively banned in the United States and it is believed that because of the controversy the editors then decided to omit any mention of Joyce from the finished article published in the March 1921 issue of THE PACIFIC REVIEW.
