174pp., translated by Mark Alexander and L. E. LaBan, introductiosn by Hilary E. Holt, Ph.D, and Guillaume Apollinaire. Two erotic novellas. Translations of two 18th century French erotic novels. The first, Margot la ravaudeuse, seems to have been originally published in 1750 with the probably false imprint ‘Hambourg.’ The original edition of Le Canape, couleur de feu was published at ‘Amsterdam’ [Paris?] in 1714, which circumstance makes it unlikely that Fougeret de Montbron was the author of it since he would have been about 10 years old at the time. Gustav Klimt art on cover. From the library of Patrick J. Kearney, with his small name sticker at the bottom of the verso of the front cover. 2030.
