A literary masterpiece written by a collection of incredibly brilliant authors including Kerouac, Burroughs, Jones and Di Prima among others. The Moderns is a timely and lavishly illustrated book that fills a gap in American graphic design history. The period is mid-century and the authors explore the work of sixty-three designers whose work reflected the ideals of European modernism. Very good condition, tight bind, some marks on the front and back cover due to age.
