Engravings tipped in at pages 82, 219, 209, 240, and 262. Scarce in any condition. Shelved case 3. BNF: Enfer 2507. Identifying a particular edition of Justine is a bibliographical challenge due to the complexity of the printing. The clandestine printing of publishers and printers through multiple countries and cities combined with seizures by the authorities led to a wide variety of reissues and reprints. "La Nouvelle Justine" is one of Sade's most notorious books which he at times denied authorship of during his lifetime. This is only volume one of the original edition and is missing some of the original pages. Its alternate title is "Les Malheurs de la Vertu" and the second volume following this one is titled "L'Histoire de Juliette, Sa Soeur." 1370760. Shelved Dupont Bookstore. Seller Inventory # 1370760
