rif. 32097Paris Calmann-Lévy 27 mai 1957. 1 vol. 210 x 140 mm de 238 p. 1 2 et 1 f. Broché à toutes marges non coupé. . Édition originale. Introduction et Étude de Jean Bloch-Michel. Un des 45 premiers exemplaires sur vergé de Hollande celui-ci un des cinq hors commerce. . Sous ce titre sont réunis deux plaidoyers contre la peine de mort : Réflexions sur la potence d'Arthur Koestler et Réflexions sur la guillotine d'Albert Camus.

Quant au texte de Camus il prolonge un combat que l'auteur a mené depuis toujours et dont les échos sont présents dans tous ses textes qu'il soient essais ou fictions. Dos insolé.
