Candide
Easton Press Norwalk CT 1977. Hardcover. Fine/ Fine. Illustrations by Sylvain Sauvage. "Candide is a French satire. by Voltaire a philosopher of the Age of Enlightenment. The novella begins with a young man Candide who is living a sheltered life. The work describes the abrupt cessation of this lifestyle followed by Candide's slow painful disillusionment as he witnesses and experiences great hardships in the world. Candide is characterised by its sarcastic tone as well as by its erratic fantastical and fast-moving plot. A picaresque novel. Still the events discussed are often based on historical happenings such as the Seven Years' War and the 1755 Lisbon earthquake. Voltaire ridicules religion theologians governments armies philosophies and philosophers through allegory. The book was widely banned because it contained religious blasphemy political sedition and intellectual hostility. However with its sharp wit and insightful portrayal of the human condition the novel has since inspired many later authors and artists to mimic and adapt it." Pub. Info The book is in Fine condition.

Oxford: The Inky Parrot Press 1985. patterned paper-covered boards slipcase. Inky Parrot Press. small 4to. patterned paper-covered boards slipcase. x 1411 pages. Printed in an edition limited to 360 numbered copies. Translated by Richard Aldington. Signed by the illustrator Wilton Priestner. Profusely illustrated with slightly disturbing almost surreal line drawings that push the satirical tone of the story itself to a new level. The modern edgy drawings are evidence of the relevancy and adaptability of the work of the eighteenth-century French writer Voltaire. The imagery does not exactly match up with the moment of the story it illustrates but rather offers a highly interpretive version of the events as told by Voltaire. For example whereas the text reads ".she observed Doctor Pangloss in the bushes giving a lesson in experimental physics to her mother's waiting maid a very pretty and docile brunette" the illustration shows a couple copulating in the garden. Paper covered boards and the slipcase also with drawings by Priestner. With shoulder notes. The Inky Parrot Press hardcover
