Les Nuits d'Octobre - Paperback

by Gabrielle Chamarat (Author), Gerard De Nerval (Author), Jean-Nicolas Illouz (Editor)

Les Nuits d'octobre experiments with a realism inextricably linked to fantasy, while Contes et Faceties combines bouzingo tale, tawdry newspaper, and folktale. At the dawn of the Second Empire, this bohemian style takes on an oppositional value. The meticulous editing of the text as well as the rich critical apparatus make this a reference edition.
