97 "Bob;" she writes indefatigably. She gener- ally works at night. Only a few of the women who have ever Hved have been creators, and Gyp is one of them. She is absolutely without pedantry, and, as someone has said of her wittily in Paris, "She is the first French woman of let- ters who has resigned herself not to be a man of letters. " Her books, the type of disre- spect for everything and everybody, certainly are not to be taken as serious pictures of French life, for she is a satirist — nev...ertheless, a satirist of great esprit and charm — and" a polemicist of violence, and everything there- fore is necessarily exaggerated. With the money she has made from her books she has bought and restored the old ruined castle of the Mirabeaux in Provence, for while Gyp lashes pitilessly the little weaknesses of others, she allows herself a trifle of vanity over her genealogy.
