This fantastic, English-language anthology is highly recommended for those with an interest in French literature, and it would make for a worthy addition to any collection.

Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this book now in an affordable, high-quality, modern edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author."
