In the early 1950s, the Presses de l’Imprimerie nationale de Monaco launched this series, which aimed to reissue the works of Prix Goncourt laureates since the prize’s creation. It would eventually comprise, for the 56 laureates awarded between 1903 and 1957, a total of 70 volumes (some titles being published as double or triple volumes).
A very fine copy, in near-mint condition.
From the library of Maurice Genevoix, at “Les Vernelles” (bookplate).
