Vellum. Condition: Very Good+. First Edition. 2 Vols - 294pp/illus and 352pp/illus. #313 of 1,000. "The novellino is a collection of fifty stories, each one told by the writer separately, without any striving after continuity. Masuccio does not trouble himself like certain others of the Novellieri, to construct a setting for his work, and to feign that the tales are told in turn by the work, and to feign that the tales are told in turn by the various members of a gentle company brought together by hazard. He tells us that all his novels are true, and that in many cases he is only setting down what he has learnt by the evidence of his senses.". Limited Numbered Copy.
