Any suggestions for how to find this book?

Hello group,

I was hoping that some of you knowledgable people out there would be
able to help me.

I am looking for an English translation of the Vicomte de
Chateaubriand's "/Mémoires d'autre tombe/", which I believe might have
been published as one of the Penguin Classics but which is now out of
print. It does not appear in the current catalogues of Penguin
Classics
and Penguin Modern Classics which I have downloaded from the Penguin
Books website. Trawling the Internet has thrown up a number of
editions
in French and the fact that parts of it are prescribed texts at a
number
of UK universities, but nothing of relevance to my search for an
English
translation.

Where to go from here?

Thanks in advance,

Erinkir
