SPOVEDANII. 1927.

Bucharest: Colectia Manuscriptum, 192

26.5 x 17cm, 30pp plus original wrappers. First edition of this collection of poems (the title translates as “confessions”) published after a break while the author concentrated on dramaturgy. The long poem is reproduced in the author’s facsimile hand – a meditation on the author’s early sexual desires and experiences.

This is a fragile document – with the cheap paper utilised for the oversized wrappers being chipped, showing edge damage and one tear on the back which has folded back a triangle of paper. There is also significant browning to the thin card covers and tears along spine (which is cord bound). Internally the paper is a little browned but otherwise VG++ condition. VerY rare in any condition.
