Boyle, Kay, 1902-1992. Kay Boyle and Joseph Franckenstein correspondence, 1940-1963.

Title: Kay Boyle and Joseph Franckenstein correspondence, 1940-1963.

The Kay Boyle and Joseph Franckenstein Collection was donated by Boyle in 1981 and consists primarily of their correspondence from the time Boyle met Franckenstein, when he tutored her children at her home with Laurence Vail in Megeve, France, until his death in 1963. It is supplemented with correspondence from friends, family, and business associates, as well as photographs and news clippings. The nature of the correspondence is both personal and historically informing, beginning at the end of 1940 when Boyle learns of Franckenstein's experiences in an Austrian internment camp, his escape, and his run from the Nazis. Their relationship built as they discussed his experiences, which Boyle was using in a novel she was working on. The novel became Avalanche, published in 1944. Other correspondence contains information about Boyle's activities including her work habits, her social life, as well as her family relationship. It reveals how she researched her stories, where she found inspiration, and whom she looked to for opinions on and information for her writing. Her friendships with Carson & Reeves McCullers, Grace Flandeau, Bessie Breuer, Mary Reynolds and Marcel Duchamp, Maria Leiper, Ira & Edita Morris are also chronicled with correspondence from them (as well as many others) in the collection.
