Paperback. Zustand: Good. 400 pages. ex-library In Rondo, Kazimierz Brandys eloquently explores many of the obsessions of con temporary literature?politics, war, art, and personal exile?against the back drop of a touching, enthralling love story. One of the previous century's great literary figures, Brandys quickened the conscience and enriched the writing of the 20th century (Time). Rondo is the culmination of a career ofgripping port rayals of ordinary people in the mode of Socialist Realism that made him an icon .In his own words, Tom is an insignificant man, powerless to effect chang es even in himself let alone in others. He is pathologically normal, with somet hing of Buster Keaton to him. Yet an initially harmless fabrication motivated b y his love for Tola, an actress of the Warsaw stage, will move him to center sta ge in one of the 20th century's most infamous conflicts and will ultimately chan ge the course of history.Following the Nazi occupation of Warsaw at the o utset of WWII, Tola wants to enlist in the Polish Resistance. To protect her, To m, whose family connections have unexpectedly made him the symbolic heir to Poli sh nationalism, conscripts Tola into an imaginary political cadre?Rondo. The idea is innocent at first, little more than a flight of Tom's fantasy, but thro ugh its own comic momentum, Rondo unexpectedly becomes a major player in the Pol ish underground. When Tom is drawn into the internal politics of the real Resist ance, the results are not only highly entertaining but telling of the eternal fo llies of war. …

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Twentieth-century Polish literature is often said to be a 'witness to history,' a narrative of the historical and political disasters that visited the nation. In this insightful book, Jaroslaw Anders examines Poland's modern poetry and fiction and explains that the best Polish writing of the period 1918-1989 was much more than testimony. Rather, it constantly transformed historical experience into metaphysical reflection, a philosophical or religious exploration of human existence. Anders analyzes and contextualizes the work of nine modern Polish writers. These include the 'three madmen' of the interwar period-Schulz, Gombrowicz, and Witkiewicz, whom he calls the fathers of Polish modernist prose; the great poets of the war generation-Milosz, Herbert, and Szymborska; Herling-Grudzinski and Konwicki, with their dark philosophical subtexts; and the mystical-ecstatic poet Zagajewski. A collection of essays representing Anders's thinking over several decades, Between Fire and Sleep offers a fresh understanding of modern Polish literature and cultural identity.…
