Édition originale de la traduction française (âs de grand papier). Très bel exemplaire à l'état neuf. Robert Montgomery Bird (1806-1854) est un romancier, dramaturge, journaliste et médecin américain qui connut un immense succès comme auteur de théâtre. Son roman Sheppard Lee est considéré comme un des premiers romans américains." Qui n'a jamais rêvé d'être quelqu'un d'autre ? D'échanger sa place avec un autre ? Début du 19ème siècle, Philadelphie : un jeune Américain, Sheppard Lee, se découvre capable de migrer de corps en corps : il sera un riche, un pauvre, un fou, un esclave. Et ses multiples réincarnations vont peu à peu dessiner le portrait de la société américaine, une société folle et cruelle. Chaque fois qu'il se retrouvera dans un nouveau corps, Sheppard Lee fera siennes de nouvelles habitudes, pensées et manières de s'exprimer et le roman épousera ces transformations, alternant entre le roman d'éducation, le conte gothique, le récit de science-fiction, le roman social, tout en conservant une force picaresque sans pareille. Cartographie mentale de l'Amérique et témoignage de son époque sur les pionniers, l'abolitionnisme et le populisme naissant, ce roman a été un immense succès à l'époque de sa publication, contemporaine de celle de La démocratie en Amérique d'Alexis de Tocqueville. Inspiré par le Frankenstein de Mary Shelley, salué par Edgar Allan Poe, Sheppard Lee est le premier grand roman américain. Oublié au 2 0ème siècle, il a été redécouvert au début du 21 ème siècle et loué, à la fois comme un roman post moderniste avant l'heure, et comme une prémonition de l'Amérique délirante des présidents Bush et Trump. Traduit pour la première fois en français, ce roman inouï est suivi d'une postface du traducteur, Antoine Traisnel, grand spécialiste de l'oeuvre de Nathaniel ".
