Covers have staining and nicks. Nerval -- poet, dreamer, hallucinatory mystic, precursor of the surrealists, who translated Faust at nineteen, paraded the gardens of the Palais Royal with a lobster on a pale blue ribbon, and hanged himself with one wintry morning with the Queen of Sheba's garter -- was the most exotic of the nineteenth-century French romantics.
