Hardcover. Condizione: As New. Condizione sovraccoperta: As New. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. 118 pages. Published in 1998. The author's collection of early short fiction. The first appearance of the title in English and in the United States. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. Presents Danilo Kis' "Rani jadi, za decu (i) osetljive" in a brilliant English translation by Michael Henry Heim. His highly original sequence of linked stories about his excruciating and acute childhood (early sorrows, yes; for children, probably not). "With a remarkable combination of affection, whimsy, and wretchedness, these nineteen lyrical stories tell a recurring tale of spiritual innocence tainted by shame and the terror of life in hiding. In addition to his finesse with language and sensory detail, Kis succeeds at rendering a precocious child's struggle to comprehend the world. In each brief vignette, the boy contemplates his own disappearance and death, which he sees foreshadowed in his father's deportation to Auschwitz. Will touch vestigial nerves in most readers" (Publisher's blurb). Danilo Kis' father hovers over the horrors of Nazi Germany. He did everything he could to protect his son. In the process, the Nazis caught on, captured him, and sent him to Auschwitz, to his death. An absolute "must-have" title for Danilo Kis collectors. This title is a great collection. This is one of very few copies of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing (American) still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws or are subsequent printings. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A scarce copy thus. One of the greatest writers of the 20th century. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER DANILO KIS TITLES IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 0811213900. no.…
