Brumder was the leading publisher of German books in Milwaukee. - On the occasion of the publication of a selection of Baum's work in 1933, Wm. Dehorn recalled his "vielgepriesener Gedichtband: Das stille Buch. Bald nach dem Erscheinen dieses Werkes kamen die bitteren Jahre des Weltkrieges und eines chaotischen Übergangs hüben und drüben, mit ihrem Generalangriff gegen die Seele. Schwer enttäuscht wandte sich der Lyriker ab und wurde weltflüchtig, denn inmitten einer brutalen Wirklichkeit, die Individuum und Gemeinschaft sprengt, kann das reine Gefühl, die Harfe des Dichters, nicht klingen. Nicht wenigen ist Das stille Buch eine Stimme der Sehnsucht geworden.".

The cover title is more expansive than the title-page: Die Blechschmiede: Pandivinium, Pandaemonium und Panmysterium. - Holz, whose social criticism and technical innovations made him a revolutionary figure in the 1890s, and who is credited with preparing the ground for Döblin, was history by the 1920s. In her comments in 1922 Babette Deutsch draws an arc between Holz and the expressionists: Ehrenstein, Klemm, Heym, Werfel, but the vitality lies with the latter group: "In Phantasus he strives to give us, in a miscellany of fragments, the many and various avatars of his wandering psyche. The scale of this work appears to be congenial to Holz, for it was followed by another huge extravaganza, Blechschmiede, purposing to synthetize the whole modern world as Phantasus purposes to synthetize the poet's entire consciousness." - But from the less engaged standpoint of the mid-1960s Erich Funke judged the Blechschmiede, in the version of the Holz Werkausgabe to be his "satirical masterpiece" ("vielstimmigen, satirischen Meisterwerk"). "Da gibt er dem selbstherrlichen zweiten Wilhelm eins auf die Krone, Dehmel und "Stefan der George" und andere "Dichterkollegen" werden köstlich persifliert, und selbst der "Prachtgreis" der deutschen Klassik mit seinem Reinike Fuchs, dem "gräßlichen hexametrischen Jux," wird nicht geschont. Auch die Kritiker seiner Zeit müssens über sich ergehen lassen, und derbste Erotik läßt den verständigen Leser schmunzeln und gibt dem Zensor drei Gänsehäute.".

An English translation appeared in 1965 with the author's name transliterated as: V. F. Odoevsky. Of the German edition - editor Städtke says: "Die Russischen Nächte sind ein philosophisches Buch, vielleicht eher ein philosophiegeschichtliches. Es rekonstruiert die Atmosphäre, in der im 19. Jahrhundert das moderne philosophische und ästhetische Deneken in Rußland entstand. Und es ist ein poetisches Werk, in dem der Verfasser Pnantasiebilder und Visionen entwirft, die in ihrer düsteren Bizarrheit und Groteske nicht nur an Hoffmann, sondern mitunter eher an die Nachtwachen von Bonaventura erinnern.".

First of his memoir volumes, covering childhood and apprenticeship. Social Democrat who turned völkisch conservative. According to his own accounts (1937, 1948), did not accommodate the Nazis, others place his support for them at 1931. Tucholsky had no patience with such figures: "Kurz nach der Revolution war August Winnig Oberpräsident [von Ostpreussen], eine Zeiterscheinung, die sogar Gustav Noske übertrifft. (Und das will etwas heißen.) Wie dieser Sozialdemokrat, kaum an die Macht gekommen, umschwenkte und all das verriet, was er jahrelang vertreten hatte, das zeigt uns wieder, wie man nicht ungestraft dicke Importen im Auto mit dem Gegner raucht. Das darf man nur, wenn man stark genug ist, sie zu vertragen. Dieser war es nicht. Beim Kapp-Putsch nahm er an dem Hochverratsversuch teil, blieb selbstverständlich straflos und steht jetzt in der Ecke: eine abgeklapperte Kleinbahnlokomotive, die auf Anschluß wartet. Vielleicht pfeift ihr eines Tages einer" (Tante Malchens Heimatland, 1921).
