Author: Jerzy Andrzejewski
Title: Popiól i diament. Powiesc.
Description: Czytelnik 1948 334 pages, Spoldzielnia Wydawnicza, First, original edition of Andrzejewski’s most famous novel, adapted into film in 1958. Describes the aftermath of the Second World War in Poland, a time of chaos, dismay at the discovery of German war crimes, obvious gratitude to the Soviet liberators, Stalin meanwhile without mercy tightening his grip on country and people. Understandable if the author himself was not always free from the confusion he was describing. This copy slightly dusty and unopened, which raises the suspicion that the book became famous without having been read. In any case, the buyer will have a first. (code N-44)
