19472915Paris: Gallimard 1947. First edition. Original wrappers. Fine. FIRST EDITION; A MAGNIFICENT COPY. "The longest and most ambitious of his fictions Albert Camus's novel The Plague is widely regarded as his masterpiece. It is certainly an artistic tour de force: a vividly realistic account of a harrowing imaginary event" Murray Sachs. “When The Plague was first published in 1947 the majority of French critics greeted it as an allegorical presentation not only of la condition humaine in general but also of the particular experience of the German occupation. Yet it would be an extremely limiting interpretation to see in The Plague only the description of a single historical experience. The struggle against plague and occupation are part of a wider struggle not only against the physical evil inherent in the world but also against the evil which men by their blindness and indifference as well as by their cruelty do to one another†Philip Thody. <br /> <br /> One of 215 copies this one numbered 199 on “vélin our film des Papeteries Lafuma-Navarre†with the paper thicker and much brighter than the more common issue which tends to have browned pages. Note: before the number the limitation page says "Exemplaire de Alfa Navarre" but this is an error printed on all the "Lafuma-Navarre" copies. <br /> <br /> CAMUS ALBERT. La Peste. Paris: Gallimard 1947. First edition. Octavo original wrappers with almost certainly original glassine; custom half-red morocco box. A beautiful fine copy; without question the nicest we've handled.

1950422752Paris: Charlot 1950. Softcover. Near Fine/Near Fine. First edition limited issue. Tall octavo. Small chip at the spine crown very good in printed wrappers and unprinted glassine dust jacket. One of 120 copies reserved for the use of the author of a total edition of 1343 copies. This is copy number 848 on Rives paper. The copies numbered between 801 to 920 were the author's copies. Inscribed by the author: "a Nicole et Jean Marie/ avec la fidele affection/ de leur vieux camarade/ Albert Camus." "To Nicole and Jean Marie/ with the faithful affection/of their old comrade/ Albert Camus.".<br /> <br /> The recipients were almost certainly Nicole and Jean-Marie Domenach French intellectuals and friends of Camus albeit with some philosophical differences. Jean-Marie was a noted left wing Catholic thinker and while he and Camus were both vocal in protesting such activities as the French use of torture during the Algerian Civil War Domenach had considerably more sympathy for the socialist and communist governments of the time which Camus found repugnant. It is interesting to note the comma in the inscription as though the inclusion of Jean-Marie in the presentation was an afterthought or perhaps a necessity of politesse. Long after Camus had died Jean-Marie Domenach provided a preface to a book of his thinking Albert Camus and Christianity. Hope on Trial.<br /> <br /> The deluxe editions of this title turn up at auction with some regularity but we were unable to find any instance of one of the author's copies in the market and very few copies of this limited edition have ever turned up signed. A rarity and a notable association copy. Charlot unknown
