Un lote de diez cartas que el l\u00edder de los Rolling Stones, Mick Jagger, escribi\u00f3 en verano de 1969 a su entonces novia, Marsha Hunt, saldr\u00e1n a la venta para evitar la ruina econ\u00f3mica de la cantante de 66 a\u00f1os. Tras permanecer cuarenta y tres a\u00f1os ocultas, las cartas se subastar\u00e1 con un precio estimado de entre 70 mil y 100 mil libras (entre 11 mil y 158 mil d\u00f3lares).<\/p>\n
Hunt vive en una costosa casa en Francia y asegura: \u00abAquel que tenga la impresi\u00f3n de que soy rica no me conoce. Vinieron a verme unos amigos y no ten\u00eda electricidad porque la factura era demasiado alta. As\u00ed que uno de ellos me dijo: seguro que tienes algo que puedes vender\u00bb.<\/p>\n
En las cartas que Sotheby’s subastar\u00e1 el pr\u00f3ximo 12 de diciembre, Jagger, que se encontraba ese verano de 1969 en Australia rodando la pel\u00edcula \u00abNed Kelly\u00bb, habla de los libros que lee, como los diarios de Nijinsky o los poemas de Emily Dickinson.<\/p>\n
Una de ellas, fechada a 20 de julio y titulada \u00abSunday the Moon\u00bb (\u00abDomingo la Luna\u00bb), en referencia a la expedici\u00f3n del Apolo 11 hacia el sat\u00e9lite, refleja la rabia que le da no poder asistir al festival de la Isla de Wight para ver reaparecer a Bob Dylan y a \u00abJohn y Yoko aburriendo a todo el mundo\u00bb.<\/p>\n
La relaci\u00f3n entre el cantante brit\u00e1nico y Hunt, nacida en Filadelfia, fue secreta hasta 1972 y tuvo como fruto una hija, Karis, y la canci\u00f3n \u00abBrown Sugar\u00bb, de los Stones.<\/p>\n
\u00abLas cartas hablan de un momento incre\u00edble de nuestras vidas. El verano del 69 fue el fin de una era de esp\u00edritu revolucionario, aunque entonces no sab\u00edamos que estaba a punto de acabar\u00bb, se\u00f1al\u00f3 Hunt.<\/p>\n
Por ello, la estadounidense, que conoci\u00f3 a Jagger cuando los Stones la pidieron que posara para un anuncio de \u00abHonky Tonk Women\u00bb, a lo que se neg\u00f3, espera que el comprador sea consciente de que se llevar\u00e1 \u00abun pedazo de historia\u00bb.<\/p>\n

Mick Jagger’s love letters to singer Marsha Hunt up for auction<\/strong> Hunt, with whom Jagger had his first child, Karis, told Britain’s Guardian newspaper she was selling the letters, written in July and August 1969, because she had been unable to pay her bills. \u00abI’m broke,\u00bb Hunt, who lives in France, told the newspaper.<\/p>\n The Guardian said on Friday the 10 letters would be sold by Sotheby’s on December 12. The auction house values the letters from between 70,000 and 100,000 pounds ($111,000-$160,000).<\/p>\n Jagger wrote them to Hunt while filming the Tony Richardson movie \u00abNed Kelly\u00bb in Australia. They are described as showing a sensitive side of the then-young singer, who wrote about the poetry of Emily Dickinson, meeting author Christopher Isherwood and an unrealized multimedia project.<\/p>\n Jagger’s relationship with Hunt, who is African-American, was kept under wraps until 1972.<\/p>\n \u00abThe sale is important,\u00bb Hunt told The Guardian. \u00abSomeone, I hope, will buy those letters as our generation is dying and with us will go the reality of who we were and what life was.\u00bb Hunt has said she was the inspiration for the Rolling Stones’ song \u00abBrown Sugar,\u00bb which Jagger wrote while in Australia.<\/p>\n The rock star also cites in the letters the disintegration of his relationship with singer Marianne Faithful, whom he was also dating at the time, and the death of Rolling Stones’ guitarist Brian Jones.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Un lote de diez cartas que el l\u00edder de los Rolling Stones, Mick Jagger, escribi\u00f3 en verano de 1969 a su entonces novia, Marsha Hunt, saldr\u00e1n a la venta para evitar la ruina econ\u00f3mica de la cantante de 66 a\u00f1os.
