It carries the profound ability to give life, shape new worlds, and nurture them with care and resilience. The egg, an ancient symbol of fertility, represents the embryonic potential from which life emerges, while its connection to the breast signifies not only life-giving sustenance but also the enduring strength of the maternal force in nurturing and protection. Together, these symbols reflect the sacred cycle of birth, growth, sustenance, and renewal. You must not reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, resell or exploit any works. In doing so, you endanger our relationships with artists and directly jeopardise the charitable work we do.

This first edition of The Dean’s December by Nobel Prize-winning author Saul Bellow, published in 1982 by The Franklin Library as part of The First Edition Society, is a masterful addition to any literary collection. Illustrated by Robert Heindel, this volume is elegantly bound in premium leather with gilt-edged pages and intricate decorative details, reflecting the Franklin Library’s renowned craftsmanship. The Dean’s December is a poignant exploration of cultural divides, mortality, and the search for meaning in a fragmented world. The novel follows Albert Corde, a Chicago journalist-turned-academic, as he grapples with personal and professional crises while confronting the stark contrasts between Eastern Europe and the United States during the Cold War era. Bellow’s incisive prose and profound insights into the human condition shine in this deeply reflective work. Saul Bellow (1915–2005) is one of the most celebrated American authors of the 20th century, known for his richly intellectual and emotionally resonant works. A recipient of the Nobel Prize for Literature, the Pulitzer Prize, and three National Book Awards, Bellow’s novels, including Herzog, Humboldt’s Gift, and The Adventures of Augie March, have left an indelible mark on modern literature.
