Cloth. Condition: Very Good Indeed. Not Stated (illustrator). First edition.

hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Janina Ede (illustrator). First Edition. Publication: London, Secker & Warburg, 1964 Formatting: 8vo, pp. 224. Condition Report: Very Good. The book is firmly bound in its original olive-green cloth, presenting a square and tight spine with only the slightest hint of shelf-wear to the extremities. Internally, the text block remains remarkably bright and crisp, entirely free from foxing, oxidation, or any prior ownership markings, reflecting a well-preserved copy. The original pictorial dust wrapper, whilst retaining its striking design, shows minor rubbing and very light toning to the panels, alongside a small, unobtrusive crease to the lower front edge. Overall, it remains a highly presentable and structurally sound example. Catalogue Note: This volume represents the first English translation of Coletteâs 1913 novel L'Entrave, brilliantly translated by Antonia White. It was issued as part of the publisher's acclaimed âUniform Editionâ of Colette's works, a series highly prized by mid-century collectors of French literature in translation. While the interior text remains unillustrated, the striking and evocative dust wrapper design is the work of the prolific British illustrator Janina Ede, who provided several covers for the author's English releases during this period. The book bears no previous ownership inscriptions or bookplates, presenting as a very clean, unmarked copy. First English editions of Colette's works in their original, well-preserved wrappers have become increasingly uncommon on the open market, particularly those without the heavy chipping or fading often associated with this specific print run. It remains a highly desirable acquisition for completists of the Uniform Edition. In this compelling sequel to The Vagabond, Colette continues her exploration of love, independence, and the complexities of human attachment. Set against the vibrant, bohemian backdrop of early twentieth-century Paris, the narrative follows Renà e Nà rà as she grapples with the conflicting desires for personal autonomy and the inescapable, often irrational pull of a new romantic entanglement. A masterful examination of passion and the human heart, brought to vivid life through Antonia White's definitive translation.
