1928réf. 91141Paris: Gallimard 1928. Fine. Gallimard Paris 1928 19 x 24 cm Broché First edition of Royaume-farfelu published in Paris by Gallimard Éditions de la Nouvelle Revue Française 3 rue de Grenelle in 1928. Limited edition of 572 copies: 13 on Imperial Japan paper 23 on Pannekoek Dutch laid paper including 3 hors commerce lettered copies 486 on Lafuma Navarre wove paper and 50 hors commerce copies on Alfa paper reserved for reviewers. This is copy no. IX one of the thirteen deluxe copies on Imperial Japan paper the most sought-after of the three deluxe issues. Original printed wrappers as issued. The preliminary leaf bears the printed dedication ""À Louis Chevasson"" present throughout the entire edition. Royaume-farfelu marks the culmination of the ""farfelu"" narratives that André Malraux began in the early 1920s with Lunes en papier. The genesis of the work is particularly revealing of its development. As early as August 1925 Malraux published ""L'Expédition d'Ispahan"" in L'Indochine under the pseudonym Maurice Sainte-Rose a text ultimately omitted from the book. Two years later the review Commerce no. 12 published ""Le Voyage aux îles Fortunées"" presented as an extract from the work then in preparation; this text was subsequently revised extensively for the first edition of 1928. The dedication to Louis Chevasson is far more than a conventional tribute. A childhood friend of Malraux Chevasson accompanied him on the December 1923 expedition to the Khmer temple of Banteay Srei in Cambodia during which the removal of several bas-reliefs led to the arrest and trial of both men in Phnom Penh in 1924. This formative episode permeates Malraux's Asian period and lends particular resonance to the dedication at the opening of a work that already transforms the experience of travel into fiction. One of only thirteen copies on Imperial Japan paper from the first edition representing the most prestigious issue of the work that brought Malraux's early ""farfelu"" narratives to their culmination.

1954réf. 80045Paris: Gallimard 1954. Fine. Gallimard Paris 1954 18 x 23.50 cm reliure de l'éditeur The first edition of which there were no deluxe copies. Publisher's full cream cloth binding complete with its illustrated dust jacket. Spine of dust jacket sunned and with two small stains on the back panel Precious signed autograph inscription from André Malraux to Maurice Blanchot. While they knew each other at the NRF it was primarily through several major articles by Blanchot devoted to Malraux that the two men ""encountered"" each other. After the war Blanchot published in Bataille's ephemeral review 'Actualité' an article on l'Espoir that allowed him ""to visibly inscribe his political reversal"". In 1950-51 in his double article on ""Le Musée imaginaire"" he formalized his own theory of the image that would permeate his future work. Confronting these two visions of art Henri Godard writes: ""Through the constancy and radicalism of its reference to death to absence to nothingness Blanchot's thought is one pole of our reflection on art of which Malraux could well incarnate the other"" In ""L'Expérience existentielle de l'art"". A polarity that could only bind Blanchot to Malraux whose tutelary figure would be invoked one final time at the end of his last narrative ""l'Instant de ma mort"": ""Later having returned to Paris he met Malraux. The latter told him that he had been taken prisoner without being recognized that he had managed to escape while losing a manuscript. What does it matter! Only the feeling of lightness remains which is death itself or to put it more precisely the instant of my death henceforth always pending."" Rich iconography. Spine of dust jacket slightly sunned as is often the case and with two marginal stains at the head of the back panel. Gallimard hardcover

1969réf. 653521969. Fine. 29 janvier 1969 21 x 27 cm une feuille filigranée Guerimand Voiron Letter typed and signed from André Malraux to Maurice Béjart. One leaf headed by the Ministre d'Etat chargé des Affaires Culturelles Ministry of Culture bearing a stamp from 29 January 1969. André Malraux hopes to place choreographer Maurice Béjart in charge of the Ballet de l'Opéra in Paris. Béjart was at the time very well established in Brussels as part of his troop Ballet du XXe siècle performing at the Théâtre de la Monnaie led by his friend Maurice Huismans. Following a report by Jean Vilar to reform the Opéra in Paris Malraux takes the decision to call Béjart back to France: J'aimerais que nous puissions nous rencontrer pour parler d'un projet que vous connaissez déjà et auquel j'attache une grande importance : la Direction de la Danse à l'Opéra I would like us to be able to meet to talk about a project that you already know and to which I attach a great significance: the Management of Dance at the Opéra. Malraux's idea was to name Boulez and Jean Vilar alongside him thus forming a solid avant-garde resolutely oriented towards the future of the arts. The choreographer declined the offer and continued his creations in Belgium. He becomes no less an admirer of Malraux to whom he will dedicate fifteen years later a ballet using Beethoven's music which he entitled Malraux ou la métamorphose des dieux. This letter is the only testimony existing to Malraux's request to the choreographer which remained controversial. This nomination was not accepted by Béjart who stayed in Belgium for ten years before heading to Lausanne. Provenance: Maurice Béjart's personal archives. unknown
