Description
Gothic novel by Maturin, translated by Jean Cohen and prefaced by André Breton for this 1954 edition at the Club français du livre.
New edition prefaced by André Breton.
Based on Jean Cohen’s translation of 1821, this edition of Melmoth fascinates Breton as much as it fascinated Lautréamont. No surprise then that André Breton has it republished at Pauvert in 1954, then at the Club français du livre the same year.
