This is a German language hardback book. Title is Ausgewahlte Werke (Selected Works), by Hugo Von Hofmannsthal. Published by Eike Middell. It was published in 1975, Insel-Verlag-Leipzig. 1114 pages.

Condition is excellent. There is a slight bend to the upper corners of the cover, and a small pencil notation inside the front cover. Otherwise, a very clean book in nearly mint condition. No dust jacket.

Hofmannsthal was an Austrian prodigy; a novelist, librettist, poet, dramatist, narrator, and essayist:
"The appearance of the young Hofmannsthal is and remains notable as one of the greatest miracles of accomplishment early in life; in world literature, except for Keats and Rimbaud, I know no other youthful example of a similar impeccability in the mastering of language, no such breadth of spiritual buoyancy, nothing more permeated with poetic substance even in the most casual lines, than in this magnificent genius, who already in his sixteenth and seventeenth year had inscribed himself in the eternal annals of the German language with unextinguishable verses and prose which today has still not been surpassed. His sudden beginning and simultaneous completion was a phenomenon that hardly occurs more than once in a generation."

— Stefan Zweig, Die Welt von Gestern, Frankfurt am Main 1986, 63-64

This is one of many German language books I purchased from a German woman who came here to the USA. All are in excellent condition, looking like they had never been used.
