A nice example of a fragile and light coloured book subject to dust and patina. No copy of this edition in Houghton. Dutel 1314. Scarce erotic classic. Provenance: a neat, perhaps feminine, hand has inscribed 'orne? de 16 H.T. en couleurs' in purple ink under the title. First published in 1880, the Vicomtesse ran a Parisian literary salon that was frequented by the likes of Verlaine ( Dutel ). A book that perhaps through fault of being good and erotic has apparently been attributed to Maupassant (a male author). A pattern repeated of course for The Story of O . 218987.
