L’aiguille & la plume, Jules Gay, Désirée Véret, 1807–1897, written by Thomas Bouchet, is a book designed by French graphic design studio Helmo.

A quick description of the book from Éditions Anamosa (translated by the contributor):

A leading specialist of the tumultuous 19th century, historian Thomas Bouchet revisits and questions biographical writing in this masterful book. He offers a “pas de deux” that brings us closer than ever to his “characters” (the needleworker Désirée Véret and the publisher Jules Gay), to their political and social commitments, and to the “shifting landscapes” that deeply color lives – theirs, and ours.
