Description

“My English is so poor”

ALS in German, one page, 6.75 x 8.25, October 1936. In full (translated): "My English is so poor that I prefer to answer your letter in German. I have never had a contract with International Publishers and they have no right to my books. Who made the translation of my book 'Literature and Revolution,' I do not know, it would take a man in America with experience. But I am closely connected with the publishing house, Pioneer Publishers, and a new edition of the book 'Literature and Revolution' could only be made with this publisher. Do you want to contact Pioneer Publishers? They will then write to me." In fine condition. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
