Una carta singular y encantadora del premio Nobel de Literatura noruego, Knut Hamsun

Knut Hamsun, en anglais, répond à une lectrice.

"Many thanks for your queer and beautiful letter. Do you read Norwegian? I wish I could write to you in my own language. What do you wish from me? An autograph? An autograph from an unknown man in Norway! Your letter has laid on my table for two months. I decides - as usual - not to answer. So today my conscience struck me, and I write. What is your name? Sola? Gola? Lola? And Norwitzky, is that Russian? Why do you send me - a poor stranger far, far away - a such wonderful letter? Tell me - in English, if you can - what do you want me to do for you. Freudien Norvitzky? Frau Norwitzky? I would like to do you something goo. Knut Hamsun".
