18. Letter from Nina Berberova to C.H. van Schooneveld, New Haven, Conn., October 10,1959. [Inv. No. 1] Pasternak’s novel (see 111. 17) was printed outside any Mouton series. In principle, De Ridder and Van Schooneveld did not mean to exclude the publication of belles-lettres. We see this from their correspondence with the Russian author Nina Berberova (1901- 1993), who was living in New Haven, U.S. She was at one time married to the poet Vladislav Chodasevic (1886-1939), and in the last ten years of her life was a celebrated author whose work was widely translated into Dutch. The Berberova file contains three more letters from Berberova to Van Schooneveld (February 11, 1960; April 7, 1960; April, 22, 1960). A Chodasevic publication in Slavistic printings and reprintings did not, in the end, materialize.
