LITERATURE - BROD Max (1884 - 1968) - Autograph letter signed
Autograph letter signed in German, dated “Tel-Avi, 29/3 44” by the Bohemian-born Israeli author, composer, and journalist. Although he was a prolific writer in his own right, he is best remembered as the friend and biographer of writer Franz Kafka. Kafka named Brod as his literary executor, instructing Brod to burn his unpublished work upon his death. Brod refused and had Kafka's works published instead. In 1939, as the Nazis occupied Prague, he immigrated to Mandatory Palestine, taking with him a suitcase of Kafka's papers, many of them unpublished notes, diaries, and sketches. Addressed to Mr. Rabbinowicz, concerning two pictures titled “Die Weisse Schenke”. 1 p. In-8. With letterhead “Habimah Circle”.
