    Odilon-Jean Périer was a Belgian poet of French heritage. He was born in Brussels in 1901 and died there in 1928 of rheumatic pericarditis. His birth name was Jean, but he chose the pseudonym Odilon-Jean Périer to avoid confusion with the actor Jean Périer. He was particularly associated with Surrealist artists and poets. He is still remembered today, with exhibitions and monuments to him in Brussels. 86 pages. 185 by 145mm (7¼ by 5¾ inches).

    . Bel exemplaire de ce premier volume de poésie en édition limitée. Sur un tirage limité à 500 exemplaires (dont 100 Hors Commerce), cet exemplaire ne porte pas de numéro - il s'agit donc vraisemblablement d'un des exemplaires H-C.

Le livre est conservé dans une pochette de protection en glassine, qui est propre mais légèrement assombrie. L'intérieur du livre est en bon état, avec quelques rousseurs, en particulier sur les premières et dernières pages.
    Odilon-Jean Périer était un poète belge d'origine française. Il est né à Bruxelles en 1901 et y est mort en 1928 d'une péricardite rhumatismale. Son nom de naissance était Jean, mais il a choisi le pseudonyme Odilon-Jean Périer pour éviter toute confusion avec l'acteur Jean Périer. Il a été particulièrement associé aux artistes et poètes surréalistes. Son souvenir est encore présent aujourd'hui, avec des expositions et des monuments qui lui sont consacrés à Bruxelles. 86 pages. 185 x 145 mm.
