A one-of-a-kind work-challenge, work-provocation, Gombrowicz's capital treatise on Polishness, on national stereotypes upheld by tradition. Brilliant humor and wonderful language, the writer's astonishing use of the forms of aristocratic storytelling, and the never-silent questions we should be asking ourselves in every generation.
