The Text Block is clean, soft white, tight, straight and square with gray topstain and no markings of any kind. The Binding is full black cloth, color uniform throughout, with the author's initials in black on a bright gilt block to the front board, bright gilt title, etc., to the spine, unmarked white endpapers, and all corners square and sharp. The Dust Jacket is bright, some fading to the spine, and fairly intact, price clipped, with wear at the head of the spine and at the folds of the flaps. See the accompanying photos. 192 pages. 5 1/4" x 8 1/4". Less an autobiography than an account of those who influenced him including Tolstoy, Scriabin, Rainer Maria Rilke and Alekander Blok, as well has his own thoughts on various poets and novelists that the author met. His interpretation of Hamlet, Lady Macbeth, Othello and Romeo and Juliet have deep artistic and philosophical significance. I Remember is translated by David Magarshack who also wrote the Preface and Notes. The Essay on "Translating Shakespeare" is translated by Manya Harari.…
