HUGO Victor [Besançon, 1802 - Paris, 1885], poète et écrivain français
Autograph letter, signed "Victor Hugo", addressed to Eugène Pelletan. "Hauteville House March 6" [1858]; 1 page in-8°, address. "Your Philosopher Kings are one of your most beautiful books. There is not a page here that does not serve progress and bring light from the past into the future. Thank you for sending me this noble and useful work, so masterful in style and thought. I live more and more in mysterious communion with the generous spirits and the great intelligences, with you, the philosophers and the poets, and this is sweet and good to me; for life has severe sides, and from the day I left France I saw clearly the eternity of exile. I am grateful for the excellent hours I spend with your deep and powerful books. I shake your hand. Victor Hugo."
