GIDE, André.
Isabelle. Récit. Paris, Éditions de la Nouvelle Revue Française, 1911. In-16 [168 x 106] of 192 pp, (2) ff. the last one blank : dark blue morocco, framed with 9 cold fillets on the boards, decorated ribbed spine, dark blue morocco lining as on the boards, gilt edges on witnesses, cover and spine kept (Huser). Very rare true first edition : it was completed on May 29, 1911. It is dedicated to André Ruyters. Edition announced at 500 copies on Arches laid paper, but, in the new original edition printed on June 20, 1911, the publisher specifies that this edition was "almost totally destroyed except for some volumes kept by the author, the printer having inadvertently made an uneven justification of the pages; the following edition, which bears the completion of printing of June 20, 1911, has been corrected after partial printing to restore the justification". Superb copy in morocco lined by Huser.
