- ↑ The letter from Bordeaux has not reached us, nor has any correspondence exchanged between him and Proust from that period. As Bordeaux likely didn’t know Proust’s recent address in Rue Hamelin, it is probable that wrote to the author through the Nouvelle Revue française, situated 37 rue Madame, from where the letter would have been forwarded to him: even supposing that this “long letter” was written as soon as the Prix Goncourt was announced, i.e. on the afternoon of 10 Décember, and posted in the evening, Proust could not therefore have received it before 11 December, on account of its (probable) detour. Since he said he had received this letter "yesterday", he must therefore have written to Régnier on 12 December. [PK, FL]
