Von Eckardt, Wolf, and Sander L. Gilman Bertolt Brecht's Berlin: A Scrapbook of the Twenties
Garden City NY Anchor Press / Doubleday 1975 0-385-05501-3 / 9780385055017 First Edition Hardcover Near Fine in Very Good dj Illustrated by (dj design) Jim McWilliams & the authors
[light remainder spray to bottom edge, otherwise a clean fresh book; jacket has a few small tears, minor paper loss at lower left-hand corner of front panel]. (B&W photographs) Heavily-illustrated history/portrait of the "tasteless, decadent, mad" world that was Berlin between the two World Wars -- which was also, of course, "a stunning phenomenon -- a hotbed of art, entertainment, and high living that radiated its influence over all the rest of Europe, and the world. This book is a testament, in words and pictures, to that city and that time, [depicting] the cafes, cabarets, music and concert halls, theaters and cinemas that attracted the most talented entertainers, the most original avant-garde artists, writers, and musicians of the age. Here are the fabulous personalities, both demonic and angelic, that helped make Bertolt Brecht's Berlin a myth for our time."
