SAND, George (Lucile Aurore Dupin Dudevant, 1804-1876). Two autograph letters signed, the first to Monsieur Charlier n.p., n.d. [July 1833], declaring herself upset that she did not see him in the morning but she went to bed at six and misguidedly no one aroused her, and telling him that she has sent him the second volume of Lélie, in manuscript and in proof, and is relying on his copyist and his good will to explain to the public the rather obscure symbols in her work. 'Il faut un jugement sain et un gout serieux comme les votres pour eclaircir et debrouiller ce poeme confus et diffus', 2 pages, 8° integral address leaf; the second n.p., n.d., to an unidentified correspondent, apologising for being unable to receive him, and declining to allow him to make a drawing of her house which is not unusual enough to deserve the illustration which he is giving it, one page, 8vo.
In the first letter Sand also declines another commission for she is overwhelmed with work and cannot think of anything else for three months, and reminds him of his promise to come to dinner. Victor Charlier was the editor of the Journal des Debats.
A fragment of the letter is published in the Correspondance, II (1966). (2)
