Alphonse Daudet

Sapho. Parisian Manners.

Societe Des Beaux-Arts 1905 8vo. 3/4 tan morocco over “spider’s web” patterened boards. Stamped in gilt on cover and spine, t.e.g., others uncut. Illustrated. Virtually no wear, a fine copy. Daudet masterfully mixes irony and emotion and is regarded as one of the finest writers of contemporaneouos romance. Sapho is considered one of his best works. This is fresh look amatory literature depicts a character who is "a trifle highly-seasoned for delicate stomachs.' Sapho sheds light an insight on carnalism and human lust, and unveils them for what they truly are.
