Korolevstvo Alykh Bashen [The Kingdom of Scarlet Towers]
Munich: [Posev], 1947. Original illustrated wrappers. Item #350
Dimensions: 20.5 × 15 cm. 151 pages. Text in Russian. With the printed censorship note, "Permitted by Military Government for Bavaria, APO 170." One of 300 copies printed. A worn copy with a tape restoration on the spine.
A collection of Christmas tales by Irina Saburova (the pseudonym of Irina Kutitonskaia, 1907–1979) published in a German refugee camp for displaced persons.
This book was published by the Russian refugees and printed in a very small run to be distributed in post-war Germany's Displaced Persons (DP) camps. Due to difficult circumstances in those camps, including a lack of resources and military censorship, such publications are a testament to the resilience and determination of the displaced persons community during this challenging time in history.
Price: $100.00
