1991014806N.Y.: Armchair Detective Library 1991. 1st hardcover edition. A fine unread copy in slipcase. ONE of 100 NUMBERED COPIES this being #98 SIGNED by Kaminsky bound in burgundy cloth without dust wrapper as issued in matching burgundy slipcase gilt stamping to front board and spine pencil sketch of the author by Carolyn Hartman at front board a very fine unread copy. A new introduction by Kaminsky. The 1st Rostnikov title. Set in Moscow the debut Ratnikov novel demonstrates how Kaminsky captures the flavor of that city. This powerful sense of time and place is doubly remarkable because Kaminsky had never been to Russia before he wrote the book. His depictions of Rostnikov coping with a corrupt Moscow police force underlying KGB pressures and the overall inefficiencies of working in the then Soviet Union are dead-on. Death of a Dissident shows a master storyteller at his finest. . Signed by Author. Limited/Numbered. Hard Cover in Slipcase. Fine. Limited Edition. Armchair Detective Library Hardcover

193543235Varshe Warsaw: Ko'operativer Farlag "Kultur Lige 1935. Original boards. 8vo 442 pages 22 cm. In Yiddish. Title translates as “Before the Flood.â€<br> <br> First volume of a three volume series of novels written by Sholem Asch while he was living in Bellevue France. Each volume describes Jewish life in a major city in the early 20th century. Volume 1 describes St.Petersburg Volume 2 describes Warsaw and Volume 3 describes Moscow.<br> <br> “Asch’s monumental trilogy Farn mabl Before the Flood.was in scope and treatment a work of major importance that translated into several languages consolidated his international reputation. Written and published in stages between 1921 and 1931 Farn mabl was translated into English in 1933 by Edwin and Willa Muir under the title Three Cities. This panoramic tale is told over three volumes each bearing the name of a city central to events immediately prior to and during the Russian Revolution of 1917: Petersburg Petersburg; 1929 Varshe Warsaw; 1930 and Moskve Moscow; 1931. <br> <br> To enable his readers more easily to grasp the complicated religious philosophical and sociopolitical problems of that period Asch deployed the genre of the bildungsroman depicting everything through the eyes of his hero Zachary Mirkin the only son of an enormously rich merchant. <br> <br> Petersburg examines the way entrepreneurial Jews contrived to share in the great commercial and industrial expansion of the turn of the century rising to positions of power and prestige in the dying days of tsarism. <br> <br> Warsaw by contrast sympathetically depicts the poverty and sociopolitical turmoil that made the Russian revolution inevitable while Moscow attempts to analyze the destructive social forces unleashed by the revolution and the subsequent conflict between individual freedom and the dictates of the Bolshevik party. <br> <br> In bridging the action between all three parts Zachary becomes the supreme example of Asch’s favorite character an existentially troubled being in search of faith and conviction able neither to accept nor to fight the drastic social transformations taking place all around him.†YIVO Encyclopedia.<br> <br> SUBJECTS: Yiddish literature.
