No, I did not know anything about this interview or, rather, pseudo-interview: When I think about this summer when we saw my father in Evian every day, he was totally incapable of associating two ideas or two sentences in a row, having never even understood that he was in Evian and no longer in New York! But the drama that surrounds him is so great nothing surprises me . . . Would you be so kind as to give me—by return mail if possible—the reference of the journal that published the text and the date it came out, so that I might find it? You understand us, I know, and you know how much all this tears us apart. Thank you wholeheartedly. How I would love to see you! Denise and I send our love and all of our deepest affection, Théodore � * * * Théodore Strawinsky à Boulanger Genève 20 novembre 1970 Chère grande Amie, Une fois de plus votre mot me bouleverse. Non, je ne sais rien de cette interview ou plutôt pseudo-interview : quand je pense que cet été où nous avons vu mon père à Evian chaque jour, il était totalement incapable d’associer deux idées ou deux phrases de suite, n’ayant même jamais compris qu’il était à Evian et non plus à New York ! Mais le drame est si grand autour de lui que tout me parait possible… Auriez-vous la grande bonté de me donner—par retour de courrier si possible—la référence, c. à. d. la revue qui a publié ce texte et la date de la parution, afin que je puisse le procurer. Vous nous comprenez, je le sais, et vous savez combien tout cela nous déchire. Merci de tout cœur. Comme j’aimerais vous voir !

With marvelous courage, he offers to God his pain as a son, and he confronts the whole situation, certainly with pain, but with a spirit that will keep its serenity. As much in New York as in Venice, we have constantly felt your faithful friendship, love, and the admiration that you have had for our dear father. For Théodore and for me as well, I say to you, our great and dear Friend, thank you for your prayers, for your constant thoughts, and your comforting friendship. I am attaching to this letter a text that Théodore wrote just a month ago (and dedicated it to you), and I would ask you be so kind as to have it read to you. I find it admirably refreshing, pure, and, today, so upsetting. It is to accompany an album of records [that were] edited in Japanese in Japan. We have to send it back to Tokyo at the beginning of May, but Théodore, according to his contract, is free to have it published wherever he wants beforehand. Given the tragic events, we wondered if it wouldn’t be an opportune moment to publish this text in France, without delay, in an important newspaper and we thought about [Le] Figaro, in the weekly literary insert. But unfortunately, we no longer know anyone! Nobody. In Geneva they would take it right away, but the circulation would be too limited. If the text resonates with you, dear Nadia, could you suggest to whom we should possibly address it, and better yet, could you yourself speak to the Editor? We have a series of contemplative photos of my dear father-in-law amid the members of his family that (as is the case with Théodore’s text) shows a little-known side of Strawinsky that the children would be happy to see returned to its [rightful] place, since, for a long time, [people] have been working to erase the memory of a family life that was so deep, so true, so beautiful, and which is engraved in the hearts of Igor and Catherine’s children, hearts which today have been so painfully hurt. I am ashamed to take your precious time, but I know you will forgive me. Allow us to send you all our love along with our deep and grateful affection. Denise � Denise Stravinsky à Boulanger 21 avril 1971 Genève Chère Nadia, Théodore ne veut penser qu’à la délivrance, remercier Dieu pour son bien aimé père. Sa douleur de fils il l’offre avec un merveilleux courage et il affronte toute la situation, avec douleur certes mais avec une âme qui veut garder toute sa sérénité. Votre fidèle amitié, l’amour et l’admiration que vous aviez pour notre cher père, nous les avons constamment sentis présents tout à New York qu’à Venise. Pour Théodore et pour moi aussi, je vous dis, chère grande Amie, merci de vos prières, de vos constantes pensées, de votre réconfortante amitié. Je joins à ces lignes un texte que je vous demanderais d’avoir la bonté de vous faire lire, que Théodore a écrit il y a un mois à peine (et vous l’avait dédié). Je le trouve admirable de fraicheur, de pureté, et aujourd’hui combien bouleversant. Il soit accompagné un album de disques édité au Japon, en japonais. Nous devons la remettre à Tokio [sic] début mai, mais Théodore, d’après son contrat, est libre de la faire paraître avant et où il veut. Étant donné les tragiques événements nous nous sommes demandé s’il ne serait pas opportun de faire paraître ce texte, sans tarder, en France, dans un journal important et nous avons pensé au Figaro dans la feuille littéraire hebdomadaire. Mais nous n’y connaisseur, hélas ! plus personne. A Genève ou [sic] le prendrait tout de suite, mais la diffusion en est trop limitée. Si le texte trouve en vous, chère Nadia, un écho, verriez- vous la possibilité soit de nous dire à qui nous adresser soit, et mieux encore, en parler vous-même à la Rédaction ? Nous avons une série de photographies méditer [sic] de mon cher beau-père au milieu de siens qui (comme la texte de Théodore) montre une figure de Strawinsky peu connue et que les enfants seraient heureux de voir remise à sa place puisqu’on travaille depuis déjà longtemps, à faire oublier une vie familiale qui fut si grande, si vraie, si belle, et qui est gravée profondément dans le cœur, aujourd’hui si douloureusement blessé, des enfants d’Igor et Catherine Strawinsky. Je suis confuse de vous prendre votre temps si précieux mais je sais que vous me pardonnerez.
