I bought books by authors like Keilson, Hermann Grab, H.W. Katz, Wilhelm Speyer, Adrienne Thomas or Alexander Moritz Frey about which I had never heard before. This re-publication, together with the books of Jurgen Serke started a process of rediscovering all these great authors and books in Germany. Several of the authors, like Hans Sahl or Keilson were still alive to witness this late act of appreciation and respect. I am glad Keilson is now available in English.

I think this is a growing trend or mini-trend.<br /><br />Mr. Keilson sounds like someone I should look for. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
