Item #6273

First American edition of an obscure novel by the Soviet journalist-novelist who named the post-Stalin era "the Thaw." The art deco dust jacket illustration, uncredited, falls into the man-amid-giant gears category, with a balanced array of geometric forms verging on Constructivism. A pleasing copy with dust jacket now housed in a removable, clear archival sleeve.
