NR. 43 OF 260 NUMBERED COPIES

CAMUS, ALBERT and ARTHUR KOESTLER.

Réflexions sur la peine capitale. Introduction et Étude de Jean Bloch-Michel.

Paris, Calmann-Lévy, (1957). 8vo. Uncut and in original wrappers. Very light wear to extremities. A very nice and clean copy.

First edition thus, nr. 43 of a total of 260 copies on vélin teinté, only large-paper copies printed.

The present work is made up of two polemical essays that both fiercely argue against capital punishment, namely - Camus's "Réflexions sur la guillotine" and an abridged French translation of Koestler's "Reflections on Hanging", which was first published in English the same year, together with an essay on the history of the death penalty in France by Bloch-Michel.
