Banned, it was criticized for having continued to publish during the Occupation, and for having been, from 1941 to 1943, directed by Drieu La Rochelle. Nostalgics of the NRF of the interwar period often came to beg Jean Paulhan to try to revive it. He would answer, with the humor that he was well known for, that he was particularly responsible for ensuring that it would not be revived. And in his new office at the Éditions Gallimard, he composed with delight a sort of more luxurious and rare NRF, which appeared three or four times, or twice, or once a year, and was called Les Cahiers de la Pléiade. There are thirteen of them" (Dominique Aury, Le Monde, September 2, 1977).
