Handwritten letter by Paul Cavafy to C. P. Cavafy from Hyères, France, on a bifolio and on one side of a small-size sheet. The purpose of the letter is to inform the poet of Paul's moving to L'Almanarre, Hyères, where he is now residing in the villa of an English general (Villa Pomponiana), serving as his secretary. Paul expresses his satisfaction for the conditions under which he is living and working, and comments extensively on general De Horsey himself and his acquaintances. Of note is the use of English and French words and phrases. (L'Almanarre, Hyères)
