Knight, Max/Joseph Fabry: A Peter Fabrizius Reader

Selected Stories, Exilia, Verses, and Essays from Two Worlds. Foreword by Harry Zorn. Texte sind teilweise in englischer und deutscher Sprache. This book is a kaleidoscope of the diverse literary and journalistic efforts of two Austrian-born friends Knight and Fabry (aka Kühnel and Epstein) who used the joint pen name of «Peter Fabrizius». The collection is a chronicle of a lifetime's work, beginning with humorous short stories written in their youth which have since been translated into seventeen languages. This is followed by their exploits on three continents and their flight from Nazi Europe. Also included are samples of their acclaimed translations of German literature. The body of work concludes with their essays in psychology and philosophy which reflect the mature thinking of their later years.
