How it works

Register

The very scarce first edition of this classic and still widely read work, later published in English as 'The Soul of the White Ant'. In the introduction, Marais recounts the plagiarism of this work by the Nobel Prize winning author, Maurice Maeterlinck.

In the original brown cloth with titles and a vignette on the front cover in green. There is very slight offsetting to the endpapers, otherwise this is an unmarked tight, clean, handsome copy and unusual thus. Lacking the rare dustwrapper.</p>"              J.L.
