In 1878 Gustave Flaubert looked on in horror as his publisher
picked up a manuscript from the mysterious stage actress Sarah
Bernhardt and published it in place of a new edition of his latest
work, and watched it go on to become an instant bestseller,
achieving international fame. Narrated by a chair in a hot-air
balloon, In the Clouds is a light-hearted, humorous tale that
follows a character reminiscent of Bernhardt through the skies
above Paris. Sadly the story sunk into obscurity, lying out of
print in the English language for much of the twentieth century.
Featuring the original illustrations by Georges Clairin, and in a
fresh edit of the first English translation, this edition seeks to
bring the tale to a new generation of readers.
