pp. iv, 140 + Engraved Half Title decorated with a drawing of a woman lying on a shore with two men, black and white, looking on in horror. Small vignette on title page. Age staining. 125mm. Disbound. Paul et Virginie (or Paul and Virginia) is a novel by Jacques-Henri Bernardin de Saint-Pierre, first published in 1788. The novel's title characters are friends since birth who fall in love. The story is set on the island of Mauritius under French rule, then named Île de France. Written on the eve of the French Revolution, the novel is recognized as Bernardin's finest work. It records the fate of a child of nature corrupted by the artificial sentimentality of the French upper classes in the late eighteenth century. Bernardin lived on the island for a time and based part of the novel on a shipwreck he witnessed there." LIT BX 8
