Editorial Reviews:
Synopsis:

This acclaimed autobiography by one of the twentieth century's greatest satirical artists is as much a graphic portrait of Germany in chaos after the Treaty of Versailles as it is a memoir of a remarkable artist's development. Grosz's account of a world gone mad is as acute and provocative as the art that depicts it, and this translation of a work long out of print restores the spontaneity, humor, and energy of the author's German text. It also includes a chapter on Grosz's experience in the Soviet Union -- omitted from the original English-language edition -- as well as more writings about his twenty-year self-imposed exile in America, and a fable written in English. "(A) vitriolic yet appreciative memoir of his artistic education, artistic and literary friends, and ideological flirtations". -- Mark Levy, San Francisco Chronicle Review "George Grosz's autobiography is here translated in a version that restores its bite, verve and sardonic humor.... It's a brilliant autobiography, masterfully written, shot through with poetry, filled with sharp observations". -- Publishers Weekly "A much more satisfying version of Ein kleines Ja -- a vivid, convincing portrait of a highly idiosyncratic artist". -- Walter Kendrick, Village Voice
