- ↑ According to Philip Kolb, Proust was referring to a letter to Lucien Daudet "[shortly after 21 November 1914]" (CP 02850; Kolb, XIII, no. 199). But this letter dates from not "a month" but more than two months earlier and, given that it furnishes sensitive details of his relationship with Agostinelli and his grief over his death (as we learn from some unpublished passages printed in Christie's catalogue of 27 November 1996), it is difficult to imagine that Lucien Daudet would not have replied to such painful confidences. The letter sent a month earlier and without reply could rather be that of [Thursday 31? December 1914] (CP 02889; Kolb, XIII, no. 204), actually written just one month earlier, unless it is a question of another letter that has not been found. [FL]
