Collective – Louis-Ferdinand Céline – L'Herne – 1963

Original edition of this notebook in the collection directed by Dominique de Roux.

Louis-Ferdinand Céline (1894-1961), born Louis-Ferdinand Destouches, was a French writer and physician whose revolutionary style, grounded in slang and emotion, shaped 20th-century literature with his masterpiece "Journey to the End of the Night". A highly controversial figure due to his antisemitic pamphlets published before and during the Occupation, he spent the end of his life in relative isolation in Meudon.

This L'Herne notebook was designed shortly after his death in a context of critical renewed interest in his work, gathering testimonies, unpublished correspondence, critical essays, and photographs devoted to the life and aesthetics of Louis-Ferdinand Céline.

Soft publisher's binding with a square spine, showing a few light signs of wear on the edges and at the spine ends and some detachment.
