selected works in translation
Gide is continually republished as he finds new readerships throughout the world. I will offer here two lists. The first is a list of all his major works by English title (the majority of these were published as English first editions by Knopf). The date listed after each book is the date of first publication in France (publishers of French first editions to follow shortly). The publisher and date listed in parentheses are for the best guess first edition in English (Please see the Andre Gide Image Gallery for scanned files of some of these English edition covers in my own collection). If anyone requires information on these first editions please email me. The second list is a sampling of translated works "currently" in publication.
