The red glove and other poems

I have just received word that a recent edition of a book of poems by Tadeusz Rozewicz entitled Il guanto rosso e altre poesie (1948)  features an image of Louise Brooks on the cover. And, apparently, the credit for the cover image reads "Cover, Louise Brooks. The Thirties, from the Louise Brooks Society Archive San Francisco." Rozewicz (born 1921) is a world famous writer, and is the author of many poems, plays and novels. He is Polish by birth. A bit more on this Italian language edition can be found on this web page.
