HUYSMANS, Joris-Karl (1848-1907). - Lot 234
HUYSMANS, Joris-Karl (1848-1907).
Set of 5 L.A.S. addressed to the lawyer and friend of naturalists Gabriel Thyébaut (1854-1922). [Paris], 1889 and n.d. 7 pp. in-8, in-12 or in-16.
Huysmans describes his multiple troubles and annoyances: Louis Félix Bescherer "this shaver, with triple trigger", his numerous ailments "swollen ganglions, a pretty rheumatism", his "tenebrous intestines are always unfaithful", the "tail of Daniel [...] coitus and office, such is his motto! And both disgust me equally. I go to Chiquet to chew mediocre food". "I came back from Brittany and the Vendée quite shattered", he talks about Arij Prins, Prince Ourousoff, he wants to see the catacombs, his troubles with "the woman of Villiers" and notes "copious tinettes [...]".
