Lind, Jakov (Translated by Ralph Mannheim). LANDSCAPE IN CONCRETE. New York City, NY: Grove Press, 1966. Hardcover. First Edition/First Printing. 190 pages. Fine/Fine.

The author's breakthrough novel. Now considered a late-modern classic. The first appearance of the title in English. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Filled with extraordinary scenes and characters, the book is "monstrous and grotesque as well as hilarious in the richness of their comic invention". Solidified Jakov Lind's reputation as an original, distinctive voice in modern German literature. A "must-have" title for Jakov Lind collectors. This title has been out-of-print as a hardcover for a long time. This is one of few copies of the First English-language Edition still available online and is in fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. A very scarce copy thus. One of the greatest writers of the 20th century. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER JAKOV LIND TITLES IN OUR CATALOG). $25.00
