new directions paperbooks
Two New Oi rections titles which
have been in constant demand
since they were first published in
hard-bound form (at $3.00 and
$3.75) are reissued in handy,
attractive format, with inviting
photographic covers by the distinguished
modern designer, Alvin Lustig.
This volume of autobiographical
stories, by the poet who died
tragically at 39, shows his waggish
humor at its best, his exuberance
and verbal magic in spectacular
display. It also shows him a
spinner of tales and a creator of
memorable characters. A book of
Wales and extravagant Wel sh
relatives, Portrait of the Artist as a
Young Dog is already a modern
classic. NO Paperbook No. 51, $.95.
Three tragic dramas by the
great modern Spanish poet and
playwright which have caught the
imagination and won the critical
acclaim of the literate world: Blood
Wedding. Yerma and The House
of Bernarda Alba. Authorized
translation by James Graham-Lujan
and Richard
L.
O'Connell, with
a biographical introduction by the
poet's brother, Francisco Garcia
Lorca. NO Paperbook No. 52, $1.25.
