Wilson, A26; From the front flap: "This space is usually reserved for a brief description of a book's contents. In this case, I must admit frankly that I do not know what Miss Stein is talking about. I do not even understand the title. I admire Miss Stein tremendously and I like to publish her books, although most of the time I do not know what she is driving at. That Miss Stein tells me, is because I am dumb. I note that one of my partners and I are characters in this latest work of Miss Stein's. Both of us wish that we knew what she was saying about us. Both of us hope, too, that her faithful followers will make more of this book than we are able to! Bennet Cerf President Random House"; . 1329891. Shelved Dupont Bookstore.
