Jules Romains l'a voulu ainsi."<br /> <br /> A tipped-in typed letter signed TLS by the owner Jean Francesche explaining how he assembled this copy after reading Romains's Souvenirs et confidences d'un écrivain tracing the culinary reference to Duhamel contacting him for clarification and engaging Bofa in a whimsical debate over the incomplete drawing. Francesche's commentary includes typed quotes from Souvenirs and his note concludes: "Je pense que tout cela augmente l'intérêt de ce charmant volume." Francesche's signed ex-libris is blindstamped to the inside front cover turn-in.<br /> <br /> A remarkable object of literary friendship bibliophilic playfulness and aesthetic invention.<br /> <br /> First published in 1913 Les Copains is a comic and subversive novel about a group of friends - eccentric idealistic and absurd - who form a loosely anarchic brotherhood and perform theatrical stunts and pranks across provincial France. It stands as an early literary expression of unanimism a theory of collective consciousness developed by Romains in the 1900s. As the New Oxford Companion to French Literature notes: "Before the war in 1914 Romains published. two novels Mort de quelqu'un 1911 and the farcical Les Copains influenced by Unanimist theories of social groups and collective psychology." This edition published nearly 40 years later by Le Rayon d'Or Gallimard's deluxe illustrated imprint pairs Romains's youthful anti-establishment text with twelve brilliant plates by Gus Bofa one of France's most original illustrators and caricaturists. Bofa celebrated for his sardonic wit and visual improvisation was a regular contributor to Le Rire and Crapouillot and illustrated classic texts by Swift Cervantes and La Fontaine.<br /> <br /> Renowned artist Gus Bofa b. Gustave Blanchot 1883-1968 was an illustrator for Rire and Sourire a costume and set designer a celebrated poster artist and illustrator for the literary journal Crapouillot.
