WorldCat: Libraries worldwide that own item: 1. Karel Capek was a Czech writer, playwright and critic. He has become best known for his science fiction, including his novel War with the Newts (1936) and play R.U.R. (Rossum's Universal Robots, 1920), which introduced the word robot. He also wrote many politically charged works dealing with the social turmoil of his time. Influenced by American pragmatic liberalism, he campaigned in favor of free expression and strongly opposed the rise of both fascism and communism in Europe. Though nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature seven times, he never received it. Capek wrote on a wide variety of subjects including science fiction, the ethics of industrial inventions and processes, mass production, and nuclear weapons, intelligent artificial beings such as robots or androids. He wrote detective stories, novels, fairy tales and theatre plays, and even a book on gardening. He wrote play The Makropulos Affair, on which Leos Janacek's opera is based. He also wrote, in 1932, children's stories, Nine Fairy Tales: And One More Thrown in for Good Measure.

Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Tchaikov, Joseph (illustratore). In Hebrew. 206 pages. 23 x 15.5 cm. Original cloth-backed color pictorial printed boards. See Israel Museum Catalog, Tradition and Revolution, number 66 (illustrated). The first publication of a Hebrew literary miscellany set up by a group of young Hebrew writers in the Soviet Union. Typeset in Leningrad, it was printed in Berlin, since Hebrew publishing was no longer possible in the Soviet Union. The work was edited by Abraham Krivochko (Avraham Kariv) and includes a story by Isaac Babel. The brilliant front cover was created by Tchaikov, a striking design of Revolutionary ideas. The letters of the title are dramatic, symbolically beginning and ending with the color red. "The combination of colors and theatricaly effects is striking. [the cover design] has the challenging element of a dramatic opening." See Ch. Abramsky, "Yiddish Book Illustraitons in Russia: 1916-1223" in Israel Museum Catalog, Tradition and Revolution, page 68.

Binding with colored illustrations. Literary collection, no other sections were published. Russian-style avant-garde illustration on the front cover by Joseph Chaikov. The group of authors who published this work could not find a printer in the Soviet Union who would agree to print a Hebrew book. The manuscript was therefore sent to Berlin for printing. Only a few printed copies were allowed back into the Soviet Union. Refer to: Y"Y HaKohen, Pirsumim Yehudi'im B'Brit HaMoetzet, Jerusalem, 1961, p. 39-40.
