Ulysses, James Joyce
Tropic of Cancer, Henry Miller
Lolita, Vladimir Nabokov
Complete set of The First Edition Library's "Published in Paris (Banned Books)" series, comprised of Ulysses, Tropic of Cancer and Lolita. Extraordinarily accurate reproductions of the first editions of three of the most controversial novels of the twentieth century, with nearly identical paper weight, size, typeface, art, wrappers, finish, and texture as the originals, as published by Olympia Press in Paris. Available to subscriber's only, the books are house in cream cloth slipcases with leather labels to spine, titles and dates stamped in gilt.
Shelton, CT: The First Edition Library, 1983. All volumes in fine condition, with the slightest hint of a rub to Tropic of Cancer's band. The slipcase tray for Ulysses has come unglued, else slipcases are in equally fine condition. Includes the publisher's explanatory notes.
