Fallada, Hans ; Sutton, Eric (trans) : Who Once Eats Out Of The Tin Bowl

Putnam, London, 1934

568 pages (complete). First edition of the first English translation of 'Wir Einmal Aus Dem Blechnapf Frisst' (the translation was published in the same year as the novel was published in Germany). This novel of a petty criminal who finds it difficult to reintegrate into society after a spell in prison closely resembles Fallada's experience (when he was imprisoned for fraud and theft due to his drug addictions). The book too, closely details the way of life in Germany as the Nazis were enforcing their power. Indeed, Fallada was in much trouble with the Nazis as this book was published. This copy is in benign condition. The boards are worn, scuffed and marked all about. The corners are worn, the spine has much wear to the head and foot. However, the boards and spine are secure and comfortable. Within, the contents are most pleasing. There are two previous owner signatures (Dr I Sacks of Winburg). There are very occasional marks from use. By far the pages are in excellent condition. They are fresh in feel and aspect, they are clean, clear, confident, generous. fk. Book Condition: Very Good. Binding: Hardcover. Jacket: No Jacket
