[4] ix, [1], 592 p.p. plus [4] p.p. of errata sheets. Engraved frontispiece. Signed by Lenormand for authentication on verso of half-title page.

Very light rubbing to boards and edges, with some wear to corners. Interior crisp, bright pages. Sporadic smudges. Old auction record glued to upper front pastedown, with light sticker ghosts to head and foot of endpapers. otherwise interior clean. A fine copy of the famous fortune-teller Marie Anne Adelaide Lenormand's first book, embarking on a literary career in 1814. Lenormand had used cartomancy, or the act of divining future events from a deck of cards, to provide advice to many prominent clients from Alexander I of Russia, Louis the XVIII, and the Empress Josephine who famously sought her advice. Lenormand was involved in numerous controversies over her 40 year career, and as a result was arrested more than once, although never detained for long periods of time. Despite her famous clients, Lenormand still had to operate secretly. According to a brief biography in Remarkable Women of Different Nations and Ages (Series I), over the door was inscribed ‘Mademoiselle Lenormand, Libraire.' The profession of prophetess not being recognized by the code, she took a ‘patente de libraire' to receive her visitors and exercise her vocation (p. 214, ‘Mademoiselle Lenormand; Fortune-Teller').
