Erich Von Stroheim

While Von Stroheim's nine films made between 1918 and 1931 are familiar to all film buffs, the three novels he published are not, Poto-Poto, Paprika and Saint John's bonfireare not as well known.
Paprika could have been an exception, if one of the two attempts to bring it to the screen, in 1937 in Paris and in 1943 in Mexico City, had been successful.
