Dear Friend,
What offensive absurdity! But is Gavoty worth worrying about? Accept the attached letter. The
boy who wrote it was sick about what happened on Friday. He is good and he has talent.
1. Would you allow your name to be put forth to the Committee for Father Desobry?
2. Would you allow Charles Leirens to come and take a photo of you? He takes very beautiful
pictures.
I’m of course sad not to have seen you, and now it’s too late. But I love you even though I
cannot see you.
To you both,
Nadia B

Boulanger à Stravinsky

Cher Ami,
L’absurdité est offensante ! Mais Gavotry vaut-il qu’on s’indigne ? Accueillez la lettre
jointe. Le garçon qui l’écrit a été malade de ce qui s’est passé vendredi. Il est bien et a de
la valeur.
1. Voulez-vous permettre que votre nom figure au Comité du Père Desobry ?
2. Permettiez-vous que Charles Leirens vienne prendre une photo de vous—Il en a fait de
très belles ?
Suis triste, bien sûr, de ne pas vous voir, et maintenant c’est trop tard—Mais je vous aime
tant que je peux ne pas vous voir.
A vous deux,
Nadia B
