About This Item
La Dame aux Camélias (The Lady with the Camellias, commonly known as Camille) is a novel by Alexandre Dumas fils, first published in 1848 and adapted by Dumas for the stage. The play was an instant success, it became Verdi's La Traviata and has since been adapted for the stage dozens of time. It has also been made into movies dozens of times, most famously starring Greta Garbo in 1936, and in 2001, when Nicole Kidman starred in Moulin Rouge. It is about a young man who falls in love with a consumptive courtesan.
This copy is undated but was published around 1950 by the Modern Library (Random House). It is gray boards with a navy and gold design. 5" x 7". 270 pages.
All flaws are visible in the photos. The pages have darkened a little. The spine is starting to pull away, just at the front. There is a bump to the cover, at the lower right corner. There is no real shelfwear—just what you see on the spine.
Lovely book.
