Everything in me revolts, everything harms me, my heart beats too quickly, the blood rises to my head, because I want you near me, very near – and you are far away.
Letter 1943.21 – “June”. Henri (650 Gen Tpt Coy) to Yvette

Letter 1943.20 – “June”. Henri (650 Gen Tpt Coy) to Yvette

Letter 1943.19 – “June”. Henri (650 Gen Tpt Coy) to Yvette

Letter 1943.18 – “May”. Henri (650 Gen Tpt Coy) to Yvette
At last, at peace with myself! I know that there is nothing in the world that could give me greater pleasure than what I have just said to you.
Letter 1943.17 – 6 May. Henri (650 Gen Tpt Coy) to Yvette
