‎IN HIMLISHN OKEAN [COVER DESIGN BY YOSEF TCHAIKOV?]‎

‎1st Yiddish edition. Period boards with original green, red, and white modernist illustrated wrappers mounted front and rear, 12mo, 95 pages. Modernist cover with original typeface initialed in the text in Yiddish “Y.T;” possibly for “Yosef Tchaikov.” Includes drawings (not by Tchaikov) and photo plates. In Yiddish. Title translates as “In the Heavenly Ocean: With 3 Drawings in the Text and 4 Pictorial Plates.” Part of the series, “Populer-Visnshaftlekhe Bibliotek; Natur un Kultur: Unter der Redaktsye fun Y. Yashunski, Nr. 3. 1 of 1000 copies printed. Tchaikov is known to have designed other covers for Kultur-Lige publications, often with creative Yiddish typefaces, for example: Di Kupe, by Peretz Markish; Samet, by Lipa Reznik; & Otem, by Ezra Feinenberg (all 1922). Joseph Moisevich Tchaikov (Also spelled, among other spellings, Tshaykov, Chaikov, and Tchaikovsky; 1888 - 1979) “was a Russian Imperial and Soviet Russian sculptor, graphic designer and teacher of Ukrainian Jewish descent. Born in Kiev (present-day Kyiv, Ukraine) and initially trained as an engraver, Chaikov studied in Paris in the years 1910 through 1914. In 1912 he co-founded a group of young Jewish artists called Mahmad, and published a Hebrew-language magazine with that name; in 1913 he participated in the Salon d'Automne.He returned to Kiev in 1914. He was co-founder, along with El Lissitzky, Boris Aronson and others, of the Jewish socialist Kultur Lige in Kiev, led sculpture classes there, supervised a children's art studio and illustrated children's books, and in post-revolutionary Kiev focused on billboards and agitational propaganda. In 1921 he published the Yiddish-language book Skulptur, advocating avant-garde sculpture as a contribution to a new Jewish art. This book was also the first book on sculpture to be published in Yiddish.Chaikov moved to Moscow to teach at Vkhutemas from 1923 to 1930, alongside fellow sculptors Boris Korolev and Vera Mukhina. All three designed and taught cubist sculpture in the distinctively Russian Cubo-Futurism style, radically geometric and highly dynamic. From 1929 Chaikov was the head of the Society of Russian Sculptors. In 1932, after the end of the period of artistic freedom, all of these cubists turned back to Socialist Realism and produced more classically styled work.In the 1930s his work was prominently shown at the two Soviet world's fair pavilions, for the 1937 Paris Exposition and the 1939 New York World's Fair….He was named an Honored Artist of the USSR in 1959, and his work is in the permanent collection of MOMA” (Wikipedia). For more on Chaikov, see: Apter-Gabriel, Ruth (1987). “Tradition and revolution: the Jewish renaissance in Russian avant-garde art, 1912-1928” (Israel Museum); and “Futur Antérieur: L'avant-Garde Du Livre Yiddish (1914-1939).

‎L'albergo dell'alpinista morto‎

‎8vo, br. ed. pp.272. Quando l'ispettore Peter Glebski decide di prendersi una pausa dal lavoro e si ritira in un remoto chalet tra le montagne, l'ultima cosa che desidera è essere coinvolto in qualsivoglia indagine. È lì per sciare, bere brandy e oziare in beata solitudine. Ma non ha fatto i conti con gli altri vacanzieri, un gruppo eccentrico che include un famoso ipnotista, un ricco commerciante con la sua avvenente moglie, uno scienziato la cui occupazione principale sembra essere arrampicarsi sui muri e un imbronciato adolescente dal sesso indefinito. Mentre l'albergo si anima, tra cene e colazioni, risate e battibecchi, strani eventi iniziano a verificarsi. C'è un fantasma nella baita? Un burlone? Qualcosa di più sinistro? E poi una valanga blocca il passo di montagna, e all'improvviso gli ospiti si ritrovano completamente isolati, ma in compagnia di un cadavere...‎

‎Lunedì inizia Sabato‎

‎8vo, br. ed. 344pp.Pubblicato per la prima volta in Russia nel 1964, “Lunedì inizia sabato” in patria è considerato il romanzo più popolare dei fratelli Strugatskij; poggia saldamente sulla tradizione nazional-popolare russa, ed è pervaso da un’aura fiabesca di schietto ottimismo e comicità. Sasha Privalov, giovane programmatore di Leningrado, sta guidando attraverso le foreste della Carelia, nella Russia nord occidentale; deve incontrarsi con alcuni amici a Solovets per una vacanza nella natura. Quando lungo la via raccoglie un paio di autostoppisti locali, ancora non sa che nella cittadina di Solovets accadono cose davvero straordinarie. I due convincono Sasha a fermarsi e lavorare con loro all’Istituto di ricerca Scientifica e Tecnologica per la Magia e la Stregoneria, dove incontrerà ogni genere di creatura fantastica, e avrà a che fare con oggetti animati e aggeggi stravaganti.‎

‎Suny Ronald Grigor‎

‎Red Flag Unfurled: History, Historians, and the Russian Revolution‎

‎8vo, hardcover in dj, on the fate of the Russian Revolution one hundred years after October, Ronald Grigor Suny-one of the world s leading historians of the period-explores the historiographical controversies over 1917, Stalinism, and the end of Communism and provides an assessment of the achievements, costs, losses and legacies of the choices made by Soviet leaders. While a quarter century after the disintegration of the USSR, the story usually told is one of failure and inevitable collapse, Suny reevaluates the promises, missed opportunities, achievements, and colossal costs of trying to build a kind of socialism in the inhospitable environment of peasant Russia. He ponders what lessons 1917 provides for Marxism and the alternatives to capitalism and bourgeois democracy.‎
