Admirable letter from Flaubert, then in the middle of writing Sentimental Education


" Si je vous écrivais chaque fois que je pense à vous, je me ruinerais en timbres-poste. Comment d'ailleurs ne songerais-je pas à votre jolie mine, puisque je l'ai là, devant moi, clouée sur mon armoire aux pipes ! Je voudrais bien la voir en nature. C'est tout ce que j'ai à vous dire.
