Hardcover. Condition: Very Good(+). Bilingual edition. Octavo in pink DJ, b&w portrait to front DJ, ix, 262 pages, b&w portrait frontispiece, 22 cm. DJ protected in archival mylar sleeve. In English and German. Gertrude (Chodziesner) Kolmar was born in Berlin on December 10, 1894. Her life, in its remoteness from great events and literary circles, resembled that of Emily Dickenson, and her poetry, of which so little was published during her lifetime, remained virtually unknown until years after her death. She wrote her best work during the 1930s, an unlucky hour for a German poet, and a hopelessly tragic one for a German Jew. Unable to escape the Third Reich, she was first sentenced to hard labor in a munitions factory and then deported to Auschwitz in 1943 and murdered. Gertrud Kolmar sought refuge in the eternities of the physical world; her poetic concerns orbit ceaselessly around a few central themes: the nature of woman and her passions, the wonders of the earth and sea and their animal inhabitants.
