Lot description

1 f. 4to: 2 pp., in Italian, on wove paper with ill. letterhead of "Grand Hôtel Hungaria" (sl. folds). Very good condition.

Puccini is in Budapest for "La Fanciulla del West" and declines an author's (insistent) offer of an opera libretto on an "oriental" subject. "Ebbi il suo libretto - molto e molto interessante ma le ripeto (come già le ho scritto) che non è affare per me ! è cruda parola, ma è così ! [...]."
