WATT.

BECKETT. SAMUEL.

Grove Press, Inc. New York. 1968, 1968.

LIMITED EDITION. FIRST FRENCH LANGUAGE EDITION. 8vo. (7.6 x 5.6). Copy number 61 of just 92 copies reserved for La Librairie des Éditions, out of 189 copies in the total edition. A fine copy with the page edges still uncut. Publishers white paper wraps printed in blue and black. Original glassine around the wraps. A lovely copy, and scarce in such nice condition, of the first printing of Beckett's translation. Although written during 1944, Watt wasn't published until 1953 and it was another 15 years before he completed this much anticipated French translation.
