19266077<p><strong>First book edition.</strong> One of 5 000 copies printed.</p><p><strong>Isaac Babel</strong> 1894-1940 was a renowned Russian-language short story writer and his works were translated into numerous languages. One of his most notable works was the short story collection '<em>The Odessa Tales'</em> which served as the basis for the play '<em>Sunset'</em>.<br />'<em>Sunset'</em> made its debut at the Baku Worker's Theatre in 1927 and later had successful runs including at the Moscow Art Theatre.<br />Russian filmmaker <strong>Sergei Eisenstein</strong> regarded the play's dramatic composition as the most suitable for the post-1917 era. Poet Boris Pasternak recommended that his father read it noting '<em>Almost for the first time in my life I found that Jewry as an ethnic fact was a phenomenon of positive unproblematic importance and power'</em> from a letter to his father in 1928.<br />Babel was arrested in 1939 and under duress confessed to being a spy. He was subsequently executed in January 1940.</p><p>Wolfgang Kasack p. 33.</p> Krug hardcover
