Autograph letter signed to jean bérard. \Indeed, you were too chic and too generous with me when I left the \can raise. But here I am now, after three years, in the same situation as when I was released. I can not count on gallimard any more, as long as I have not given him a manuscript of which I will be satisfied, a condition sine qua non for me. The only newspaper I work on Sunday morning has not paid its editors for three months! And he will probably publish this week his last issue.

We are studying an alternative. I am not ashamed of this situation. I judge it even honorable! What humiliated me, as I told you the other night, would be to be kept away from a corporation, a system, a country straightened, having achieved something decent.

However, you still have to live at least. I ask you frankly if you have for me a little work in my musical skills.

I did not think to be reduced to this hiding, after 26 years of a job that I think I know quite well. But I still prefer that, rather than publishing an insufficiently elaborate book, as do too many writers. As for a possible work for Veronique, I thought about it; This is hardly a solution: first, because in the present circumstances I would become unemployed at the expense of my wife!

And then, not to mention the fragility of her health, she would be forced to take a replacement for the minimum household, which would put everything in question. I exposed you the little problem as it is. However unimportant the task you may entrust me, I will accept with gratitude. And besides, anyway, I would be happy to resume with the musical world another contact than that of the episodic listener.
