Your Diamond Dreams Cut Open My Arteries: Poems by Else Lasker-Schuler - University of North Carolina Studies in Germanic Languages and Literature

This selection of translations by Robert Newton, supplemented by a biographical and critical introduction and a selected bibliography, was the first substantial presentation of her works in English at its original publication in 1982.
