Summary
Laurencin says that the [Maurice] Baschet document is back on the wall. She hasn't called Mademoiselle Boisneau. It's raining very hard in Paris, but it's good for the gardens and the plants on her balcony, and she loves the greenery, which she says is like a drug. She says you can be taken in by a blade of grass, yet in a city, people are isolated from one another and don't know one another, but the anonymity is pleasant. She's hoping that on his next visit, he'll see Armand, who is transformed. His forced rest did him a lot of good. R.G. [René Gimpel] didn't think he'd pull through.
