Note: Translated by Lawrence Hyde (1925). Illegible signature on the dustjacket bottom right. The copyright page says 'First published in Great Britain under the title "Krakatit" in 1925 (Geoffrey Bless). Reprinted under the title "An Atomic Phantasy" in 1948 by George Allen & Unwin'. However, Krakatit is retained as subtitle on its recto title page; see ideally Panoply Books photos. The US ed uses the same typesetting (including "Printed in Great Britain ... by Unwin Brothers Limited, Woking and London"!), adding just "Published in 1951 by Arts, Inc., New York".
