Signé ; Sacha Guitry / Émile Compard - Vers de Bohème [envoi autographe signé de Guitry] + disque vinyle - 1947

Fascinating signed, illustrated, and numbered edition 469 on Johannot pure rag paper in the form of vers libre, gathering personal reflections, memories, and anecdotes in which the author expresses with elegance his spirit, his taste for observation, and his singular way of considering human beings and the events of life.

Publication accompanied by an unreleased disk in a case, on which the poems “Égoïste” and “Ma Chatte” were recorded by Sacha Guitry.

The work originated from a series of public readings given by Guitry on December 2 and 9, 1942 at the Théâtre de la Madeleine in Paris, as part of the Grandes Conférences de Paris.

Through these texts, the writer and man of theatre momentarily moves away from the traditional structures of comedy to favor a freer expression in which poetry blends with conversation, humor, and confidences.
