octipus rex 13

(From Martin's Journal)
this week i went to paris to exhibit some of my paintings on rue de la huchette. i had not planned on selling any paintings and i did not sell any. i wanted to keep my paintings before the public eye and to see la cantatrice chauve and la leçon by ionesco at the theatre where they have been playing for so long. after seeing the plays i bought a lamb sandwich at the cafe next to the theatre. i then bought a doughnut at a pastry shop at a pastry shop that was not very far away.
the next afternoon i went to the organ concert at notre-dame cathedral. jacques charpentier played his "le livre d'orgue," it was a beautiful concert. I wished that herbert was with me.
the next day i went to the fnac near montparnasse and bought some books for herbert and vaclav. that afternoon i set up the exhibit on the rue de la huchette. there was almost a riot, because the paintings were not for sale.
