Description from the seller
Jolie binding with pyrographic decoration. Full marbled calf, covers adorned with fine lines, floral motifs, and geometric patterns painted in red. Spine with raised bands, with gilt title and author. Gilt top. Case.
Covers and back preserved, margins untrimmed.

Total print run limited to 1,000 numbered copies, this one being number 700 on Rives vellum (number 700).
Summary:
Published in 1893, La Rôtisserie de la reine Pédauque is a picaresque novel full of upheavals, both tragic and burlesque. A. France describes the tribulations of young Jacques Ménétrier at the beginning of the 18th century.
But La Rôtisserie de la reine Pédauque, while respecting the rules of the genre, goes further and raises essential questions about the meaning of life: philosophical discussions give the book its sense of unease and an apology for desire.
Condition: leather rubbed on the back and clasp. Very clean surfaces. Impeccable interior. Solid case showing slight signs of handling.
