Santa Marguerita, ca. November 23, 1882: Letter to Paul Rée

But my dear dear friend, I thought you would feel just the opposite and would secretly be happy to be rid of me for a time! This year there were a hundred occasions, from Orta onwards, where I found that your friendship with me was “costing you too much.” I took possession of far too much from your Roman find (I mean Lou)—and it always seemed to me, especially in Leipzig, that you had a right to become somewhat reticent toward me.

Dearest friend, think of me as kindly as you can, and please ask the same of Lou on my behalf. I belong to you both with the deepest feelings of my heart—I believe I have proved this more by my separation than by my proximity.

All proximity makes us restive—and in the end I am altogether a restive human being.

We shall see one another again from time to time, shall we not? Don't forget that from this year on I shall have become suddenly poor in love, and consequently much in need of it.

Write me something quite precise about the matter that most concerns us—the matter that “stands between us,” as you always put it when you do write.

Lots of love,
Your F. N.

NB. I praised you so much in Basel that Frau Overbeck said: “But the man you're describing is Daniel de Ronda!” Who is Daniel de Ronda?

Address: Santa Margherita, Ligure/poste restante
