Yellow cloth titled in maroon on spine with color pictorial vignette to front cover; dark green topstain; 121pp. Light soiling to cloth else a straight tight Near Fine copy. In the original pictorial dustwrapper unclipped priced $1.50 on front flap lightly soiled but generally bright and unfaded Very Good. <br /> <br /> Zweig's controversial novella originally published in the Viennese newspaper Neue Freie Presse in 1922. The story filled with Freudian references deals with the romantic obsession of an abortionist with one of his patients leading finally to her death and his suicide - almost needless to say this was hardly the drink of choice for Americans in the Great Depression; the print run must have been small and sales smaller still as today the book is unexpectedly scarce in commerce and rarely found in nice condition.
