Enclosed please find your manuscript, “Actuel (1970-1974), or the Manifesto of a Counter-Culture in France,” the subject of which doesn’t interest us.

In this regard, we allow ourselves to recall to you the judgments made of this magazine, [found in] extracts from two books that we have published: “Modernist rag . . . magazine of intellectual pollution”; “public garbage dump of recuperation”; which are judgments that we totally agree with.
