New York, Farrar, Straus, Giroux, c1982. First Edition. This collection gathers forty-two of Walser's stories, mostly brief sketches. "How to place the mysterious Swiss writer Robert Walser, a humble genius who possessed one of the most elusive and surprising sensibilities in modern literature? Walser is many things: a Paul Klee in words, maker of droll, whimsical, tender, and heartbreaking verbal artifacts; an inspiration to such very different writers as Kafka and W. G. Sebald; an amalgam, as Susan Sontag suggests in her preface to this volume, of Stevie Smith and Samuel Beckett." Hard Cover. ix, 194 pages, 24 cm. Vg / dj vg. Stock#43034.
