First edition of this posthumous exile publication by the Austrian novelist and poet (1866-1945), one of the innovators in use of inner monologue, a work of memory in honor of his wife who died in Switzerland after escaping from Austria in 1939. Proprietor of the Johannespresse was the Viennese art-historian and publisher Otto Kallir, already a close friend of Beer-Hofmann's before their emigration. Paula appears to have been the last work of the press in the US and is recalled by one biographer as one of Beer-Hofmann's most significant efforts as well as a rare sign of continued German-language productivity in emigration.
