Soft cover. Zustand: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Quarto 23.3x15.2 cm., wrappers, 1928-1930, 18 numbers (all published). Cover designs by Ernests Kalis. A bimonthly journal, considered to be one of Laicens' most important publications and the most significant journal of the era along with SIGNALS but esteemed to be of higher literary quality and thought. Striking abstract linocut covers, highly original, in bright colors unique for each issue. As with almost all of the liberal to left wing culture in Latvia, there is a strongly Soviet orientation, and the journal was most likely financed, at the outset, with funds from the USSR. Every issue is illustrated, including some photomontage and graphics. In addition to being a vehicle of contrarian social commentary and promoting open discourse, KREISA FRONTE also was a publishing house which issued poetry and literary books. Linards Laicens (1883-1938) was highly individual, prolific writer in all literary forms, editor and publisher, going against all currents of the day, leftist and of increasingly Marxist-Leninist persuasion. Somewhat the ingenue in matters of Soviet power, he emigrated to the USSR where he became a victim of the purges in Moscow in 1938 along with fellow Latvians. KREISA FRONTEwas published from 1928-1930. There are no library holdings of this most important journal outside of Latvia. The present set is clothbound, preserving original wrappers.…
