Author: KANTOR, MacKinlay / HATSUMI, Reiko
Title: The Work of Saint Francis / Rain and the Feast of the Stars
Description: Boston, Houghton Mifflin Company, n.y. Hardcover. Illustrations by Johannes Troyer and decorations by Jeanyee Wong. 8vo. Dark blue cloth with light blue lettering, pictorial dust jacket. 107pp, 215pp. Numerous line drawings. Near fine/very good. Mild jacket edgewear. Curious reprint pairing two seemingly unrelated works, Kantor's 1958 World Publishing Company novella set in Spain and Hatsumi's 1959 Houghton Mifflin memoir of her childhood. Both the World Publishing Company and the Houghton Mifflin Company title and copyright pages are included, though Houghton Mifflin appears at the foot of the book spine and jacket spine, so presumably they published this odd couple. .
