Boulanger to Théodore Strawinsky
[September 20, 1969]
Dear Théodore,
How I think of you! Your Father’s tragedy is still here, yet already absent. And is he aware of
this, does he suffer, what relief does he receive from the only relief possible? Such anguish in
these questions. And the Almighty, is He believed in, recognized? Our hearts are linked, my
prayers joined to yours in the faith and mercy of God.
To Denise and you in deepest commitment,
Nadia B.
P.S. Hope you can read this, my eyes are dying, sorry.

Boulanger à Théodore Strawinsky
[sans date] [20 septembre 1969]
Cher Théodore,
Que je pense à vous ! Cette tragédie de votre Père, encore là et déjà absent. Et cet
inconnu sait-il, souffre-t-il, quels secours reçoit-il du seul secours possible ? Tant
d’angoisse dans ces questions. Et l’impuissance, croit-on là-bas, le verrait-on ? En union
de cœur avec vous, mes prières jointes aux vôtres et la confiance en la miséricorde de
Dieu.
A Denise à vous en profond attachement.
Nadia B.
[P.-S.] Espère pourrez lire, mes yeux en voie d’extinction pardon
