Les Fleurs du Mal (French Edition) by Charles Baudelaire, hand-bound in genuine leather by LeatheredLines. Baudelaire's Les Fleurs du mal in the original French. First published in 1857, the collection was prosecuted for offending public morals and six of its poems were banned. Moving between Spleen and Idéal, beauty and decay, its poems of Paris and the senses changed the course of modern poetry. A fine edition for readers of French and lovers of the Symbolists.
About this leather-bound edition
We cover every book in genuine leather by hand, finishing the spine with gold-tone foil titling and decorative tooling in the tradition of fine library bindings. Because each copy is made individually, small variations in leather grain and colour are a natural sign of handwork.
The thickness and weight of the finished book depend on the length of this particular title. Longer works make a noticeably thicker volume, while shorter works are slimmer.
