It was edited by Camus together with Gabriel Audisio Ren�-Jean Clot Jacques Heurgon and Jean Hytier and was published by Edmond Charlot in Algiers. The aim of the review was to provide to the rest of the world with an insight in to the rich cultural life of the Mediterranean. <br><br>When "�t� � Alger" originally appeared in "Rivages" Camus had only published one book ""L'�nvers et l'Endroit" 1937.

‎L’Etat de siege. Spectacle en trois parties.‎

‎Paris: Gallimard 1948. First edition of this classic play by the Nobel Prize-winning author. Octavo original wrappers. Presentation copy inscribed by the author on the half-title page "A. M. Antomin <span class="match">en</span> cordial hommage Albert Camus." In near fine condition. Housed in a custom half morocco clamshell box. Written in 1948 The State of Siege--the original sense is closer to state of emergency--is a play in three acts presenting the arrival of plague personified by a young opportunist in sleepy Cadiz and the subsequent creation of a totalitarian regime through the manipulation of fear. In a piece written in 1948 in reply to criticisms from Gabriel Marcel Camus defended his decision to set the play in Spain and not in Eastern Europe citing the ongoing oppression in Spain France's collusion in it and the Catholic Church's abandonment of Spanish Christians. The piece was first performed in October 1948 and was initially received poorly by critics and public who had eagerly awaited the work but expected a dramatization of Camus's novel The Plague. While the two share a common background the treatments are entirely different in tone. Although Camus himself was pleased with the work critics remained unimpressed. The State of Siege has remained constantly in print in French and since 1958 in an English translation by Stuart Gilbert--in Caligula and Three Other Plays. Gallimard unknown books‎

‎The First Man.‎

‎New York: Alfred A. Knopf 1995. Early printing of the first American edition of Camus' deeply moving autobiography the original manuscript of which was discovered in the car wreckage when Camus was killed and was subsequently transcribed by his daughter. Octavo original half cloth pictorial endpapers. Translated from the French by David Hapgood. Fine in a fine dust jacket. Jacket by Carol Devine Carson. First published in France in 1994 - thirty-four years after the handwritten manuscript was discovered in the car wreckage that killed Camus - this autobiographical novel recaptures Camus' often difficult childhood in Algeria. Because the pages were never honed and edited by Camus - the handwritten manuscript was simply transcribed by his daughter - the story of childhood carries with it a lyrical spontaneity vastly different than anything published during Camus' lifetime.
