Manhattan Transfer / Die Stadt

Bys: Passos, John D. and Masereel, Frans

In 1925 there appeared two classic representational fictions about urban life, one in America and the other in Western John Dos Passos' Manhattan Transfer and Frans Masereel's Die Stadt/The City (1925). As the first had only words, the latter offered only pictures-stark black woodcuts devoid of words. For this 21st-century edition, the book artist Richard Kostelanetz places pages of the latter between chapters of the former, creating from two old classics a new classic of visual/verbal literature.
