You and I met and fell in love passionately, impatiently, dangerously. I regret nothing and I feel that these last days I’ve lived are enough to justify a life. – Albert Camus to Maria Casarès, 1st July 1944Their affair began in wartime Paris. Maria Casarès, a young Spanish actress, was starring in a production of the great writer’s play The Misunderstanding, and at an after-party hosted by Simone de Beauvoir and Jean-Paul Sartre, they embarked on a brief but passionate relationship. Separated by the end of the Occupation and the return of Camus’s wife to Paris, the couple were reunited by chance one day on the boulevard Saint-Germain, and from that day forward – until the fatal car crash that took Camus’s life in 1960 – they were inseparable. Their correspondence, uninterrupted for over a decade, is testimony to the depth of their connection while also offering a vivid portrait of artistic life in post-war Europe. Camus and Casarès debate books and politics; describe encounters with Colette, Cocteau, Gide and Picasso; discuss stardom and everyday life, their love of the sea and nature, their doubts and dreams. Above all, they describe a relationship that feels like an impossible gift. Translated into English for the first time by Sandra Smith and Cory Stockwell, these 865 letters reveal the intimate personal lives of two extraordinary artists, and record one of the great love affairs of the twentieth century.
