Can I ask you to obtain from Editions SugarCo an Italian copy of the Comments? I know that the book appeared about two months ago, but those people do not seem to think that it would be normal to let me see it. I am not pressed to judge the quality of the translation (the harm is done), but I would like to read the preface. Its author[1] pursues me with letters and asks if something has displeased me in it. This modesty appears to me to augur quite badly. I prefer to not respond to him until I have read his preface first.
On the other hand, I have found this letter from Floriana,[2] which has become so moving in so many ways. What do you think we should do about it?
Cordially,[1] Giorgio Agamben.
[2] Letter from Floriana Lebovici dated 23 December 1988, mentioning that "an insurance policy of which you and Alice are the beneficiaries was taken out with the Legros office."
