Hardcover. Zustand: NEW. W. A. Dwiggins (illustrator). 1st edition. Bruce Kennett, 2023. NEW. 250 pages. 5-3/4" x 7-1/2"/15 x 19 cm, the same page size envisioned by WAD in 1928. (The spine is green, not purple as in the photo) This edition features 130 drawings and paintings by Dwiggins, many never seen before. The book has been printed in full-color throughout by Penmor Lithographers. Although Dwiggins is best known for his work in graphics and puppetry, he also wrote essays, satire, and fiction. Many people are unfamiliar with this aspect of his work. He was recognized for this talent early on: one of his pieces was chosen for Houghton Mifflin's annual compilation, Best Short Stories of 1915. From 1910 to 1926, Dwiggins created a series of stories about an imaginary place he named Athalinthia, and the people who lived there. A place perhaps akin to Persia a thousand years ago, or Uzbekistan in the 1920s . . . he never said. He drew and painted more than 100 pictures expressly for these. This is WAD at his most fanciful, his most personal. The 100+ illustrations display Dwiggins's ever-changing experiments with styles and materials from 1910 until 1950. Pen-and-ink drawings, watercolor paintings, prints in multiple colors from woodcuts or stencils, and even split-fountain silkscreen. This book is filled with delights. It comes straight from the imagination and heart of W. A. Dwiggins, one of the great visual artists of the twentieth century. Wise and witty stories written by Dwiggins, accompanied by more than a hundred of his fanciful illustrations. He tried to get this published in 1928, but never succeeded. Now, nearly 100 years later, we can do it for him! And in these troubling times, stories such as these are a comfort for all of us to have on our bookshelves. (Bruce Kennett, Kickstarter).
