Paris: Gallimard, 1939. First French language edition of Otchaianie [Despair], translated from Nabokov's first English translation by Marcel Stora. Original printed wrappers, fine, unopened. There were no special paper copies. This was the first of Nabokov's books to be translated into French from English instead of from Russian.
