SYNOPSIS:

Many of the poems in this collection, published in 1857, were banned for indecency by the French government. A major 19th-century text and an inspiration to the Symbolist movement, THE FLOWERS OF EVIL evokes the decay and debauchery of the Parisian underworld, expressing both the seduction and repulsion of death. Baudelaire implicates the reader in his project, admonishing his audience with the famous line, "Hypocrite reader--my likeness--my brother!"

You are looking at a brand new, never read, mint condition book manufactured to the highest quality standards by The Easton Press:

Easton Press books are superbly printed and beautifully bound. The finest archival paper has been radiantly gilded. The genuine leather cover is deeply inlaid with an appropriate design and the spine is elegantly titled in precious 22 karat Gold. Other deluxe features include smyth-sewn pages, moiré fabric end sheets and a sewn-in satin ribbon page marker.

This Easton Press edition is a timeless classic and an essential and luxurious addition to your private library.

You will find this book to be in absolutely perfect and brand new condition (further proof lies in the binding which will make “cracking” noises when you open the book as it is not yet “broken in”, pages still stick on the gilding, etc.). This book is, in fact, BRAND NEW in all respects except for only having had the plastic shrink wrap removed. There are no marks, ownership plates or seals, and all page gilding and inlay plus everything else is PERFECTLY MINT!!!

Therefore, in summary, this is nothing short of your opportunity to obtain a CLASSIC BOOK in MINT CONDITION and manufactured to ESTATE QUALITY for your private library that will surely become a FAMILY HEIRLOOM to be passed down!

Notes about the Pictures: You may in some images see reflections, shadowing, mirroring and other aspects that are NOT indicative of any defects in this book, but rather the environment in which the pictures were taken. This is due to the reflective nature of the natural leather book covers, gold inlay and gilding combined with the bright under counter halogen lighting. When you receive your book it will look even better than these pictures indicate!
