About This Item
Verlag Golem, 1987. Soft cover. Very Good. 79 pages, with index of traditional numbering of the poems and the ordering in this edition. Has "Rationale of the Translation" note on the use of modern idiom. 5-1/2" x 8-1/2", stapled in white card wraps which are age-toned and foxed along the fold, no apparent shelf wear, top edge age-toned, old price in pencil on ffep, publisher's name and address stamped on inside back cover, pages unmarked. Reading these translations will likely require a magnifying glass; evidently a miscalculation of trim settings shrank the type to no larger than 8-point.
