AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

First and only illustrated edition, adorned with 15 original color lithographs by the painter Jean Marchand (1882-1941). Text printed with a red border, revised and corrected by the author.

Unique print of 245 copies. One of the 200 numbered on Arches vellum (No. 119).

Leaves, padded cover titled in black. Folder decorated with violet and green patterns, with a title piece on the back. Without the case.

Condition: Interior impeccable. Creased along the spine of the cover. Wear at the edges, spine of the dust jacket worn. Good condition.

A novel written in 1908 marks the entry of Roger Martin du Gard into literature. Writing already appears to him as the only means of expressing his refusals: he does not erase his heritage, but gradually, all the values—psychological, ideological, literary, aesthetic—of his environment (an affluent milieu of legal professionals and financiers) and his era are scrutinized by his reason and sensitivity. In his published works, 'Devenir' is considered an ironic assessment of his youth.

Becoming. Illustrated with fifteen original color lithographs by Jean Marchand.
