196134795London: Hamish Hamilton 1961. First Edition. 8vo publisher’s original red crimson cloth lettered in gilt on the spine in the pictorially decorated dustjacket. xi 198 pp. A very fine copy in a fine dustjacket. FIRST EDITION. This is a collection of Camus’ political writings published one year after he died. A fascinating collection many of his topics are quite relevant to issues today. They include discussions of Algeria Hungary and the death penalty. His analysis of Spanish fascism evokes thoughts surrounding many contemporary issues as well: that of the French in forgetting their complicity with the Nazis and the roots of Spanish fascism; the rabid anti-communism of the Cold War that blinded people to injustices elsewhere; the recognition of totalitarianism in whatever guise it appears; and the cooperation of the Church in Franco’s Spain. Camus’ critical and analytic abilities are of the highest order and well worth reading. <br> Camus was both an interesting political figure of his time and one of the most significant authors of the twentieth century he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1957. These two facts are reflected in this volume which highlights his commitment to human rights: “Again and again throughout his too-short life Camus spoke out wherever the issue was human freedom against ignorance--for the fighters against tyranny in Spain and Hungary--as a bulwark of reason in the conflict in his native Algeria.†dustjacket However “Over and above intellectual or political leadership he provided the moral guidance the postwar generation needed. By remaining flagrantly independent he could speak out both against the Russian slave-labor camps and against U.S. support of Franco’s Spain. By overcoming the immature nihilism and despair that he saw as poisoning our century he emerged as the staunch defender of our positive moral values.†Justin O’Brien Hamish Hamilton hardcover

195734794New York: Alfred A. Knopf 1957. First American Edition. 8vo publisher’s original binding of brown paper boards blind-tooled with star pattern backed with blue cloth gilt lettered in the original dustjacket with photographic portrait. 148 pp. A fine copy in a dustjacket with light edgewear and mellowing. FIRST EDITION. A classic work of fiction by one of the greatest existentialist writers of modern times grappling with the conflict between the conscience of the modern psyche and the existence of evil. “Masterful in style and form the narrative of The Fall is at once elegant mordant brilliant with aphorism and paradox.â€<br> “In a shady bar in Amsterdam the man who does the talking in The Fall is indulging in a calculated confession. He recalls his past life as a respected Parisian lawyer a pleader of noble causes secure in his self esteem privately a libertine yet apparently immune to judgment - the portrait of a modern man. The irony of the recital predicts the downfall. Inescapable it comes in the narrator’s intense discovery in the space of one terrible and unforgettable instant that no man is innocent and no man may therefore judge others from a standpoint of righteousness.â€-Knopf.

FIRST EDITION PUBLISHED IN FRANCE 34 YEARS AFTER THE MANUSCRIPT WAS DISCOVERED IN THE CAR WRECKAGE WHEN CAMUS DIED. "This autobiographical novel received extraordinary acclaim when it was published. It is a radiant deeply moving novel of childhood.<br> "Because these pages were never honed and edited by Camus - the handwritten manuscript was simply transcribed by his daughter - there is a raw energy to the writing. Feelings and images are poured onto the page with an intensity that makes this story of a childhood more spontaneous more lyrical more moving than anything Camus published in his lifetime." - Knopf Alfred A. Knopf hardcover

196034801New York: Alfred A. Knopf 1960.

FIRST EDITION. A classic work by one of the greatest existentialist writers of modern times grappling with the conflict between the conscience of the modern psyche and the existence of evil. ‘ It is the last finished work by Albert Camus and is considered one of his finest achievements. Camus devoted years of patient effort to meeting the inescapable challenge of recreating for the theatre Dostoevsky’s great prophetic novel. The work stands as an enduring literary statement about human existence in which the conscience of the twentieth century meets and defines in contemporary terms the conscience of the nineteenth century.’ Knopf.
