Boston, MA: Little, Brown and Company, 1891 Little, Brown and Company, Boston, MA. 1891. Hardcover. First Edition. Book is tight, square, and unmarked. Book Condition: Good; soiling to boards; wear to head, tail, tips, and top of rear board. No DJ. White cloth boards and spine with gilt lettering on the spine and gilt floral decorations on spine and boards. Frontis picture of author with tissue guard; uncut fore edge and bottom pages; gilt textblock top. 181 pp 12mo. This book is part of a French novel which was published anonymously in March 1678. It is regarded by many as the beginning of the modern tradition of the psychological novel, and as a great classic work. Its author is generally held to be Madame de La Fayette. The action takes place between October 1558 and November 1559 at the royal court of Henry II of France. The novel recreates that era with remarkable precision. Nearly every character—though not the heroine—is a historical figure. Events and intrigues unfold with great faithfulness to documentary record. A clean presentable copy.
