Industry Reviews "Klee's style, in the German original, is often turgid, sententious, involved, and far from clear; at its best it has a kind of supra-grammatical, folksy spontaneity that is apt to evaporate in transit....And so what is the main interest of the diaries, Klee on his own work. The link, at last, with the artist of such originality and imagination; the link, also, with the man of the extraordinary eyes, the dark, magnetic, inward-seeing eyes in the stern, innocent, often beautiful face, who looks out of the photographs and who fails to come through his own words." New York Review of Books - Sybille Bedford (12/31/1964)
"A remarkable book....For those of us who have long admired this painter but were not fluent enough to read his diaries in German, the present publication comes as a windfall. it demonstrates how closely the artist, the writer, and the man are enmeshed." Johnson
