An affectionate memoir by the writer Myriam Harry. In 1901, Harry sent Huysmans a copy of her first book, Petites èpouses and he wrote back to her, addressing her as 'Monsieur Myriam Harry', assuming the writer of the book was a man using a female pseudonym in order to sell more books. The two met soon after and became friends. Several of Huysmans' letters to Harry are included in the memoir.

This is one of 35 numbered copies printed on pur fil outhenin chalandre and is signed by the author to Roger Nicolle.
