JOYCE, James.
Dedalus.
Portrait de l'Artiste Jeune par Lui-meme. Translated by Ludmila Savitzky.
First French edition. With the translator's signed presentation inscription to the first blank leaf. The name of the recipient has been excised and the inscription partially obscured by a one page autograph letter from Joyce written in French on the back of one of the advertisement leaves which were laid into the book at publication. Again the name of the recipient has been excised. Joyce first gives details of his new address and proceeds to present this copy. He mentions critics and give some information regarding Ludmila Savitzky's movements.
