MALLARMED (Stéphane). Autograph card signed and addressed to [Jules Bois]. Valvins, October 17 [1894]. 2 pages in-12 oblong, on strong paper. Enthusiastic message, most probably unpublished, to the poet, novelist and playwright Jules Bois (1868-1943). It refers to two books he published in 1894, L'Eternelle poupée (Ollendorf) and La Porte héroïque du ciel (Librairie de l'Art indépendant). "How late I am late; but you are one of those who know, and the conviction of having charmed a silencer does not fail you. To what extent: I do not, however, want to leave the countryside where your books have often been in my hands, without telling you the truth. The Eternal Doll is a superb cry, with all its sumptuous spiritual accompaniment, and in it you will forever appear a master and original prose writer. The Heroic Door of Heaven, one of those Dramas, which are their own Music, so rare, rich, significant: of which I am more in love than anything else. See here, dear friend, only the pressing of hands, seduces ".
