A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Mr. Beerbohm. I suggested that he might lend me a page of his corrected MS. to reproduce in facsimile. (T oshow readers how an author goes to work may not be strictly relevant to an appreciation of that works result, to be sure, but it is legitimately interesting.) I urged that, probably, there were in his possession caricatures as yet unpublished and unexhibited which might be published here ;finally and how well he must have known that this was coming I asked him whether he would make a caricature of himself, special to the occasion, for a frontispiece. This was his reply :VILLINO CHIARO, RAPALLO. June 18, 1921. DEAR BOHUN LYNCH, The sky is very blue here this morning, as indeed it usually is, and your letter came like a bolt from it. After I had read the first 2or 3lines I instinctively sat down, somewhat blasted, I then read the whole letter manfully. And now I take up my pen.
