About This Item
Seagull Books, London, 2011. Reprint. Hardcover. Near Fine Condition/Near Fine. Annemarie Schwarzenbach has become a European cult figure for bohemian free spirits since the rediscovery of her works in the late 1980s. Lyric Novella (1933) is her story of a young man's obsession with a Berlin variety actress.  The author's clear, psychologically acute prose makes this novella an evocative narrative, with many intriguing parallels to her own life. In fact, she admitted after publication that her hero was a young woman, not a man, leaving little doubt that the novella is a literary tale of lesbian love during socially and politically turbulent times.  Dust jacket blurb Translated by Lucy Renner Jones this is the 1st edition by this publisher.
