This book, written by a Jewish anarchist in the early 1920s, has largely gone unnoticed in the English and American canon despite being a direct influence on Brecht; to have it reemerge today being entirely created through the efforts of three queer writers and artists. And in the words of Joseph Rathgeber, "Mathilda Cullen's translations are a lot like Pound's translations, except Cullen actually understands the language she's translating. She's also not a fascist."
