Brother Ocean. For Sganarelle. - The Dance of Genghis Cohn. - La Tête coupable. Paris, Gallimard, 1965-1968. 3 volumes in-8, paperback, uncut. First edition of the three opuses composing the trilogy Frère Océan. Copies of the first edition on Hollande vellum, one of 27 for the first volume and one of 23 for the following two. Pour Sganarelle, subtitled Recherche d'un personnage et d'un roman, opens the trilogy in 1965 with an essay, a sort of art of the novel according to Romain Gary. La Danse de Gengis Cohn and La Tête coupable, published respectively in 1967 and 1968, are the novelistic sequels. A very nice copy as issued.
