B&W plates A memorandum from an imagined future time in which centuries of slow-moving but cataclysmic climate change -- not global warming but rather global freezing -- have forced humans first to reconstitute their civilization far beneath the surface of the earth and ultimately to develop "projectile cars" rocket ships essentially to allow them to escape from an earth that's become "useless and dead." The memo-writer has rejected an alternate plan to use "certain experiments in atomic detonation"! to shift the earth's orbit closer to the sun and to thereby re-heat the planet. Although primarily known for his influential work in the field of industrial design John Vassos's credentials as a modernist artist were firmly established by the three books he published around this time; this one was preceded by "Contempo" 1929 and followed by "Phobia" 1931. The book's dedication is "To D.H.L. D.H. Lawrence who loved the sun"; Lawrence had died in March 1930 the book was published in November. And don't miss the attractive black-on-silver bookplate concealed by the front jacket flap of one A. Eric Armstrong on whose shelves this book once rested. . E.P.
