A propos de cet article

First impression of the first UK edition - the first edition in English was published in New York by Alfred A. Knopf in 1928, but the UK edition is far scarcer, particularly in the original dustwrapper. Translated from the German by Hannah Waller. ***Very good in yellow ochre cloth-covered boards with black titles and double red compartment borders and Jewish Star of David design to compartments on the spine. The boards show some rubbing and marks commensurate with age and handling, with some discoloration to the yellow cloth. No reading lean to the binding. Spine tight. A very few light fox-marks to the fore-edge of the page block. Interior pages clean. Contemporaneous owner's name 'E. W. Dawhill?' in dark blue fountain pen ink to front free endpaper. ***In a very good buff-coloured dustwrapper, with red and black titles and borders to front and rear panels and spine. The dustwrapper is complete, with the edges slightly creased and rubbed. Very shallow loss, creasing and rubbing to head and tail of spine. Small closed tear to the top edge of the back panel. Extremely small loss and rubbing to corner tips. Red borders to the spine slightly faded. Spine of dustwrapper darkened. ***196mm x 138mm. 340 pages. ***'Max Brod (1884 - 1968) was a German-speaking Jewish Czech, later Israeli, author, composer, and journalist. He is most well-known as the friend and biographer of Franz Kafka. As Kafka's literary executor, Brod refused to follow the writer's instructions to burn his unpublished manuscripts after his death. Instead, he edited and published Kafka's work in the 1930s. Max Brod wrote and published many novels which combined elements of fantasy, mysticism, and eroticism and are written in a direct style. His first novel and fourth book: Nornepygge Castle (Schloss Nornepygge) published in 1908 when he was just twenty-four years old, was celebrated in Berlin literary circles as a masterpiece of expressionism. As well as Franz Kafka, Max Brod encouraged many other writers and musicians. He critically recommended Jaroslav Hašek's "The Good Soldier Svejk" and this played a major part in this novel becoming such a popular success'. (Wiki) ***First impression of the first UK edition of "Reubeni: Prince of the Jews" - rare to find now complete in its original 1929 dustwrapper in collectable condition. Of interest to collectors of rare German early twentieth-century literary first editions in English translation. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.…
