The Correspondence
between
PAUL
CLAUDEL
,
and
ANDRE
GIDE
The intimate and astounding
letters in which Claudel, the
man of faith, sought to bring
Gide to Catholicism ... while
Gide, although attracted by
Claudel's genius, stood firm in
his own kind of individualism.
The climax of their correspon–
dence is reached in the letters
dealing with Gide's homosexu–
ality. "One of the outstanding
volumes since the war."
-Cyril Connolly.
