Description from the seller

Georges Bataille – Le Coupable (1961) – Gallimard, NRF – Service de presse with handwritten dedication

A particularly intriguing copy of Georges Bataille’s Le Coupable, published by Gallimard in 1961, retaining its uncut pages.

The lot is distinguished by its connection to Gallimard’s publishing history and an accompanying handwritten sheet bearing a dedication to Gaston Gallimard, signed Georges Bataille. This combination potentially gives the copy additional documentary and historical significance beyond that of an ordinary signed edition.

An interesting collector’s item for enthusiasts of Bataille, twentieth-century French philosophy, and the literary history of Éditions Gallimard.

Condition: Signs of age and wear to the covers. Uncut pages. Please refer to the photographs for details.
