2 volumes in-8 (220 x 130 mm) de XVII, 315 pp., [1] f. (table) ; 279 pp., [1] f. (table), [7] ff. («Commission spéciale pour les Cabinets de Lecture»), brochés. EDITION ORIGINALE de ce récit du voyage à Majorque que George Sand entreprit avec ses enfants et Frédéric Chopin, de novembre 1838 à février 1839. Trouvant refuge dans la petite chartreuse de Valldemossa, Chopin y composa ses Préludes mais, atteint de phtisie, vit sa santé se dégrader rapidement sous le climat humide de l?île en hiver. Effrayés par la maladie du compositeur les insulaires le traitèrent en paria, ce qui excéda profondément George Sand.Loin de la vision idyllique teintée d?exotisme des Baléares que l?on pourrait attendre d?un écrivain romantique, Un hiver à Majorque présente donc un constat sévère de l?île et de ses habitants, qui fera dire à certains que «George Sand y montre une grande incompréhension de Majorque.» (Journal des débats, 11 juin 1988). Dans l?une de ses lettres elle parla du «plus malheureux essai de voyage qui se puisse imaginer», allant jusqu?à qualifier l?Espagne d?«odieuse nation».Séduisant exemplaire, broché, tel que paru. Condition rarissime.Il est truffé d?une belle et très rare affichette de promotion gravée sur bois et coloriée.____________Provenance : timbre gras de la «Libreria Turati» sur la couverture du tome 2.Bibliographie : Carteret, II, 310. Vicaire, VII, 305.…
