Klappentext

The New Directions Pearls series features a growing list of great authors' short masterpieces. From César Aira's offbeat and entrancing Literary Conference to F. Scott Fitzgerald's On Booze - a collection of the famous writer's best musings on alcohol - the series offers these accomplished writers' greatest short works in pocket-sized editions designed by Rodrigo Corral.

Now that we've published fifteen Pearls - with two more appearing this season - we're offering booksellers the opportunity to display the books together in a custom display case. At 15 " wide x 8 " high (with books)x 5 " deep, the display takes up very little counter space and fits into most bookshelves, and comes fully loaded with 25 Pearls.
