Small octavo. 236pp. Baskin's drawings illustrate much of the volume, providing a both probing and somewhat comical insight into Goethe's poetry. Translation and commentary by Alex Page. This is volume one of seven books proposed by the Gehenna Press. The edition was originally bound in full red cloth, but of these a small number, of which this is one, were taken by Parrot in recovered in full marbled paper with a red leather spine onlay. Fine.
