CLAUDE FRANCOIS: A handwritten letter from Sofia Kinkkonen, - Lot 108

CLAUDE FRANCOIS: A handwritten letter from Sofia Kinkkonen, the singer's fiancée between 1972 and 1976. A break-up letter from 1976, in which she expresses her feelings and her separation: "Love is like a flower, it's beautiful one moment, then it fades, withers, only the leaves remain, it's the memory. You were my life for me, my heart and soul, but then something happened between us that tore me apart. So many times I found myself alone and many times I cried, anyway you know all the times I wanted to try. If you could be me and I could be you, if only for an hour, if we could have found a way into each other's minds, if you could see me through your eyes instead of your "ego", I think you'd be surprised to see that you're blind. He who loves cannot forget, he who forgets has never loved, he who has and forgets again, has forgotten how to love, you too, you'll forget me but I'll forget your forgetfulness, because I'll never forget you. Sofia". Also included is a handwritten bill on which she inscribed an adorable love note: "Amour, je dois t'écrire, ça brulera pour toujours, à toi mon amour, j'ai tellement à donner, ça va prendre une vie - La Sauvage".
