MAUPASSANT (Guy de).

MAUPASSANT (Guy de).

Notre cœur. Paris, Paul Ollendorff, 1890. In-12 bradel brown morocco, gilt title on spine, date on tail, cold-pressed medallion with fruit decoration in center of boards, cover and spine preserved (Kieffer). First edition. N°42 of 150 on Hollande paper. A very fine copy enriched with a L.A.S. from Ferdinand BRUNETIERE, editorial secretary of the Revue des Deux Mondes, almost certainly addressed to Maupassant, asking if he needs to take a last look at the proofs of the last part of Notre Cœur before going to press (Paris, May 5, 1890, 1 p. in-8 on Revue letterhead). (Vicaire V, 622.)
