Pitigrilli – Dolicocefala Bionda (Sarışın Bebek) – İnsel Kitapevi 1958 Edition
Description:
This is the 1958 Turkish edition of Dolicocefala Bionda (Sarışın Bebek) by Pitigrilli, published by İnsel Kitapevi. The original Italian novel was first published in 1936. Pitigrilli was the pen name of Italian writer Dino Segre, known for his provocative, satirical, and often irreverent style.
The novel tells the story of Teodoro Zweifel, a self-styled doctor and alchemist whose unconventional life takes him through ambition, deception, scandal, and increasingly tragic circumstances. The work combines dark humor, satire, erotic elements, and sharp observations of society and human behavior.
Pitigrilli's characteristic style is built around provocative ideas, irony, paradoxes, and a deliberately unconventional approach to morality and social conventions. Dolicocefala Bionda is one of his notable novels from the 1930s and reflects the author's reputation for controversial and fast-paced storytelling.
This particular copy is especially attractive to collectors because the pages remain completely uncut. The gatherings have never been opened or separated for reading, an exceptionally scarce condition for a vintage 1950s Turkish edition. Finding a copy preserved in this original uncut state is very difficult.
