Satie to Debussy

Monsieur Erik Satie is working at the present time on a delightful work entitled 2 Morceaux en forme de poire. Monsieur Erik Satie is crazy about this new invention of his mind. He talks about it a lot and says very good things about it. He believes it superior to everything he has written up till now; perhaps he's wrong, but we mustn't tell him so: he wouldn't believe it.
