Description: This is a limited edition copy of "THE SONGS OF BILITIS" by Pierre Louys with its original dust jacket. 1928; Privately Printed for The Pierre Louys Society; United States. The book is beautifully illustrated with numerous full-page plates in color by Franz Felix. Each plate is protected with a captioned tissue guard. Gilt top page edges. Translated from the Greek. Limited Edition - this copy is No. 154 of only 1,250 copies printed. The dust jacket is made of a sturdier, canvas-type material. There is a Notes section at the back. Printed on "Unicorn laid paper." 'The Songs of Bilitis' is a collection of erotic, essentially lesbian, poetry. From a review: "These passionate verses were published in Paris in 1894 as the lost works of a disciple of Sappho. Between their open celebration of lesbian love and the eventual revelation of their true authorship, the verses actually were written by French novelist and poetry Pierre Louys - they became a 'succes de scandale.' Although debunked as a work of Antiquity, The Songs of Bilitis remains a classic of erotic literature."
