Autograph Letter Signed: "P. Loti", 2p, 4¼x6¼. No place, no date. "It's easy to respond to you,
sir, with complete sincerity. I'm not working on anything at the moment and I don't even have
anything in the works. I'm simply taking it easy. /Salutations,". Pierre Loti (1850-1923) was a
French novelist and naval officer. He spent some time in Tahiti as part of his navy
training and his experiences on the island inspired him to write Rarahu (1880), which was
reprinted as the Le Mariage de Loti. In 1883, he published the critically acclaimed and
semi-autobiographical, a Mon Frère Yves a novel about a French naval officer and a
Breton sailor. His most popular work is Pêcheur d'Islande (1886), a particularly interesting
work in light of Loti's attempt to adapt popular painting style of the time. Two small tears on
top edge, 1-inch tear along fold on bottom edge. Crease across center. Otherwise, fine
condition.
