First edition. Octavo. 216 pages. Wrappers. Plates including reproductions of paintings by Piet Mondrian, Paul Klee, Henri Matisse etc; photographs by L. Moholy-Nagy, Francis Bruguiere, Henri Cartier-Bresson etc. Cover design by Joan Miró. Contains the first part of Franz Kafka's Metamorphosis. (In the list of contributors it is… said of Kafka that he ''died in 1936 at the age of 30''. A strange editorial oversight considering that Eugene Jolas is himself here the translator of Metamorphosis.) Other contributors include Dylan Thomas ("Poem" and "The Mouse and the Woman"), Norman McCaig (two poems) etc. A very bright copy, near fine.
