Quand l’aristocrate anglais Horace Walpole passe par Paris en 1765 et croise Mme du Deffand à los angeles fin de l’été, il est lui aussi célèbre – écrivain dilettante, voyageur, excentrique, élégant. L’audace de l. a. marquise étonne et séduit bientôt Walpole. Elle est plus vivante que jamais. Cette singularité le conduit à entamer une correspondance, en avril 1766, qui ne cessera qu’avec los angeles mort de Marie du Deffand, en 1780.
Plus que tout, l. a. salonnière redoute l’ennui. Elle est toujours en quête de nouveau et, plus profondément, d’étrangeté. Chez Walpole, l’auteur du Château d’Otrante, prototype du roman noir anglais, elle est séduite par l’imagination. Il y a entre eux un accord de fantaisies et de problems, entre divertissement et mélodrame.
Les lettres de Mme du Deffand présentées ici plongent au plus profond de zones aventureuses et obscures, celles de los angeles ardour amoureuse que l’on n’ose pas avouer mais que l’on dit trop bien ; une half d’enfance qui, soudain, s’enfuit vers l. a. nuit de los angeles vieillesse et de l. a. mort. Mais il y a là, également, sous l. a. plume sarcastique et terriblement drôle de l’une des plus grandes épistolières françaises, une chronique mordante de l’air du temps, cette douceur de vivre des salons, de l. a. cour et de l. a. ville.
