New York - Tokyo: Information Publishing Ltd., 1960, 372pp., . Book of poems in English - Printed in Japan. Includes frontispiece photo of the author. - A member of the Hungarian P.E.N Club, he left his native country at the time of the Hungarian Incident. He came to Japan in 1957, as a political refugee and made a sensational speech at the International P.E.N Conference at Tokyo about the uprising. A successful composer and poet, Platthy took great interest in things Japanese. During his sojourn, he composed the operetta "Taketori Monogatari (Tale of Ta-ketori)" for the Takarazuka Girls Opera Corps.

Biro and Prof. J. G. Mills), which has become, since that time, out a of print.
