8°. 322 S. Illustriertes Oln. Gutes Exemplar. Erste Ausgabe der letzten Veröffentlichung des Dichters. WG 23. Raabe 53, 25. Der zunächst zum Expressionsimus zu zählende Autor (1894-1960), der mit einigen seiner Werke, u.a. den Romanen "Trieb" und "Bordell" nicht nur in bürgerlichen oder kirchlichen Kreisen auf Ablehnung stieß, schaftte es trotz Verbot seiner Bücher und einjähriger Schutzhaft auch im NS-Staat als Autor, Redakteur und Dramaturg tätig zu sein. Auf die Liste des unerwünschten Schriftums kam nicht zuletzt auch sein 1929 entstandenes und Aufsehen erregendes, gegen den Antisemitismus gerichtetes, Schauspiel "Trojaner", das er aber nach 1933 kurzerhand zu dem durchaus NS-konformen Roman "Hellmann der Führer" umschrieb, der dann 1946 wiederum durch die sowjetische Besatzungsmacht verboten wurde.

gebunden. Condition: Neu. Neu -Curt Corrinths rauschhaft erotisierender Roman »Potsdamer Platz« wurde nach seinem Erscheinen im Jahr 1919 wegen des Vorwurfs Pornographie zu verbreiten verboten. Wer die von Paul Klee illustrierte Groteske heute liest, weiß warum. Und es lässt sich erahnen, mit wie viel Freude der Autor diesen expressionistischen mit religiös anmutenden Psalmen durchwirkten Minnegesang über den »neuen Messias«, der aus der Provinz nach Berlin kommt, um am Potsdamer Platz zunächst sich selbst und dann die ganze Stadt in einen kollektiven Lustrausch zu versetzen, niedergeschrieben hat. Das einzige von Paul Klee durchgestaltete und illustrierte Buch - beinahe 100 Jahre nach Erscheinen in einer originalgetreuen Neuausgabe mit zehn ganzseitigen Illustrationen. 96 pp. Deutsch.…
