At the northeastern tip of Staten Island lies the town of St.
George, the docking point of the famous Staten Island Ferry. Within
its borders is Fort Hill, a fortified British lookout point used
during the Revolutionary War. By the 1830s, this area of Staten
Island facing the Kill van Kull and New York Harbor was a
fashionable resort town where a wealthy clientele frequented the
many elegant hotels that graced the areaas hilly terrain. Great
estates dotted the landscape to take advantage of the unparalleled
views of New York City and the bustling harbor below. Today St.
George is the civic center of Staten Island, as well as a commuting
hub for islanders who work in the great metropolis across the bay.
The collected fiction of "one of the most original imaginations in
modern Europe" (Cynthia Ozick)
Bruno Schulz's untimely death at the hands of a Nazi stands as one
of the great losses to modern literature. During his lifetime, his
work found little critical regard, but word of his remarkable
talents gradually won him an international readership. This volume
brings together his complete fiction, including three short stories
and his final surviving work, "Sanatorium Under the Sign of the
Hourglass." Illustrated with Schulz's original drawings, this
edition beautifully showcases the distinctive surrealist vision of
one of the twentieth century's most gifted and influential writers.
