About this Item

Octavo, 121 pages. In Very Good condition. Bound in printed beige wrappers. Original glassine in Near Fine condition, with only the smallest tear near head of spine. Portrait frontispiece present, top edge largely unopened, and text block interior clean. Number 76 of 85 copies on Verg� bouffant with a portrait of the author by Christian B�rard, signed by the author and artist, from an edition limited to 302 copies. CX Consignment. Shelved in Case 2. The first French edition of selections from Stein's modernist novel, The Making of Americans: Being a History of a Family's Progress. Stein's novel has a notoriously difficult publication history: a portion of the work was printed in Ford Maddox Ford's transatlantic review in 1924, before being released in its entirety by McAlmon's Contact Press in 1925 (in a limited edition of 500 copies). After its 1925 publication, there was no other full and complete english language edition released until 1966. The present edition represents the first publication of Stein's work in a language other than English, and was also one of the first works published by �ditions de la Montagne (founded by Hugnet in the same year).
