Alcooliques Anonymes — French Big Book | Québec Edition, Blue Dust Jacket

The Big Book’s history is also a history of translation: the same message carried into new languages, communities and reading lives. This French-language Alcooliques Anonymes, with its blue dust jacket and gilt-lettered dark binding, represents that French-speaking recovery tradition.

Shipping information · Returns policy

The volume identifies the Service de la littérature A.A. du Québec in its distribution information. Its contents bring together the recovery program, personal accounts and supporting A.A. material in French, making it an interesting companion to the English-language books on a collector’s shelf.

The publication details deserve a careful distinction. The copyright page carries a fourth-quarter 1977 legal-deposit statement for the national libraries of Québec and Canada, while the bottom of that page bears the code 6000-12-82. The latter is consistent with a December 1982 printing, but the printing sequence has not been independently established. This copy is therefore identified by its actual printed statements rather than described as a first French printing.
