hardcover. Etat : Very Good in Dustjacket. Etat de la jaquette : Very Good. First Edition. New York. 2010. June 2010. New Directions. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Dustjacket. 9780811218801. Bilingual edition, Translated from the German and with an Introduction by Susan Bernofsky. Afterword by Walter Benjamin. 160 pages. hardcover. keywords: Europe Switzerland Literature Translated World Literature. DESCRIPTION - W.G. Sebald called Robert Walser 'a clairvoyant of the small,' and nowhere is the phrase more apt than in his 'microscripts.' Robert Walser wrote many of his manuscripts in a highly enigmatic, shrunken-down form. These narrow strips of paper (many of them written during his hospitalization in the Waldau sanatorium), covered with tiny ant-like markings only a millimeter or two high, came to light only after the author's death in 1956. At first considered a secret code, the microscripts were eventually discovered to be a radically miniaturized form of a German script: a whole story could fit on the back of a business card. Microscripts gathers 40 short pieces - stories, poems, fragments, 'dramolettes' - in this gorgeously illustrated co-publication with the Christine Burgin Gallery. Each microscript is reproduced in full color in its original form: the detached cover of a trashy crime novel, a disappointing telegram, the inside of a soap wrapper. Schnapps, rotten husbands, small-town life, the radio, pigs (and how none of us can deny being one), jealousy, Van Gogh and marriage proposals are some of Walser's subjects. These texts take strength from Walser's motto: 'To be small and to stay small.' inventory #10709. N° de réf. du vendeur z10709

Hardcover. Etat : Near Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Near Fine. Hardcover. 9" X 6 1/2". 159pp. This beautiful near fine copy presents nicely with unclipped dust jacket wrapped in protective archival sleeve. Very mild shelf wear to covers, corners, and edges of jacket. Bound in green cloth over boards with spine lettered in black. Very gentle bumps to head and tail of spine. Pages are clean and unmarked. Binding is sound. ABOUT THIS BOOK: Robert Walser wrote many of his manuscripts in a highly enigmatic, shrunken-down form. These narrow strips of paper (many of them written during his hospitalization in the Waldau sanatorium) covered with tiny ant-like markings only a millimeter or two high, came to light only after the author's death in 1956. At first considered a secret code, the microscripts were eventually discovered to be a radically miniaturized form of a German script: a whole story could fit on the back of a business card. Selected from the six-volume German transcriptions from the original microscripts, these 25 short pieces are gathered in this gorgeously illustrated co-publication with the Christine Burgin Gallery. Each microscript is reproduced in full color in its original form: the detached cover of a trashy crime novel, a disappointing letter, a receipt of payment. Sometimes Walser used the pages of small tear-off calendars (but only after cutting them lengthwise and filling up each half with text). Schnapps, rotten husbands, small town life, the radio, pigs (and how none of us can deny being one), jealousy, Van Gogh and marriage proposals are some of Walser's subjects. These texts take strength from Walser's motto: "To be small and to stay small." 65 full-color illustrations(Publisher). N° de réf. du vendeur 16585
