Corrected proofs of 9 parts of Dernier homme (parts 1, 5, 11 and 12 missing) , comprising numerous typographical and layout corrections as well as textual corrections and deletions. Printer's stamp to half title: "Imprimerie de Lagny/ 21 novembre 1956/ Epreuve". The parts are composed of 12 pages recto and 15 pages for the last, a contemporary advertisement serving as a cover. A unique and important author's working copy, showing above all Blanchot's attention to layout for his novel and his final deletions and changes to the text before publication.
