from Guy Debord

To Anita Blanc
23 October 1989
Dear Anita:


Thank you for all your letters.

It will be necessary for me to receive from the publishing house, for the year 1989, the sum of 250,000 francs (to declare); this must be calculated in part according to what remains from the sales of the preceding books, and in part as an advance on Panegyric.

Are you up-to-date on the current status of the Strategic and Historical Games Company -- id est Kriegspiel? Floriana [Lebovici] told me in June that she must have me sign some papers, but alas I have not seen her since then.

I read the work by Pascal Dumontier[1] quickly and with pleasure. It is very important. I will respond to him.[2]

See you soon,
Guy
