SAND (George). Isidora. Paris : Hippolyte Souverain, 1847. - 3 volumes in-8, 214 x 137: 314 pp; 309 pp, (1 f.); 297 pp. miscalculated 307, (1 f.). Dark green bradel paper boards, smooth spine decorated with gilt fillets, untrimmed (20th century boards). First edition of 1846, with the relay titles dated 1847. Isidora ends on page 85 of the third volume; it is followed by Fanchette and the Letter of a peasant of the Black Valley . It includes several notes in pencil, mainly in the first volume, which are not in Aurore's hand but in the hand of an obviously misogynistic and anti-feminist reader, in any case who did not like George Sand . One can note this note on page 107 of the first volume. George Sand wrote: "Man is a fool, a villain, a coward when he slanders the divine being associated with his destiny. The woman...", and the author of the note wrote afterwards: "Oh!!! The woman... but she is a capricious, cantankerous, spiteful, vindictive being, whom hell vomited on the earth to make the misfortune of the man". Further on in the same volume, on page 114, George Sand left a chapter blank which she entitled "Of love", the reader wrote: "You do well to put only dots, because, for sure, you would say nonsense". The copy also includes the signature and the ex-libris stamp of a certain Rousseau de Saint-Lô. Missing the table leaf at the end of the first volume. Lower third of the last leaf of the second volume torn and missing, without affecting the table. Freckles and stains on some leaves. Provenance: Aurore Sand, with autograph signatures. - Rousseau, with signature and ex-libris stamp.
