Experts, very respectable people, love it. The reputation of a book is on two levels, two markets: the official market and the black market. "Paulhan: " Of course, between Paulhan and me, it's irreparable. I told him things that were too green and that will never pass.... Paulhan is a hypocrite, and that is not enough: it is rose rot (when the rose has wilted). "N.r.f.: " The N.R.F. is a pig cave. "Nimier: " So far, we've had a feeling of astonishment about you. Everything has surprised: youth, talent, maturity, culture, the jaguar, rapid success; above all, a way of moving forward as a man of the world, off the beaten track, taking things in reverse.
