Jean Raspail — The Camp of the Saints — Original 1973 edition, with a signed dedicated inscription A copy of the original edition of a novel that became one of the most controversial works of contemporary French literature. Rare in its original edition, this book is even rarer with a dedication! which is the case here..... Published in 1973 by Éditions Robert Laffont, The Camp of the Saints is Jean Raspail’s emblematic book. This visionary and polemical novel imagines the massive arrival of people coming from the Indian subcontinent on the French coasts and questions, from a deeply contested perspective, the identity of peoples, national sovereignty, the role of elites, and the future of Western civilization. A true object of intellectual and political debate since its publication, the work remains a sought-after title for collectors interested in 20th-century French literature and books that marked the controversies of their era. A particularly interesting copy This paperback edition features a signed autograph inscription by Jean Raspail, dated December 27, 1972 (a few days after its release) on the title page, providing an additional interest to this original edition. The recipient of the dedication has been erased and remains unidentified. This is the original edition published by Robert Laffont in 1973 (final printing date: December 13, 1972) on standard paper — to be distinguished from the 20 copies of the head edition printed on pure Marais thread.
