Description:
Critical introduction by Piotr Chmielowski (biographer and great expert on the author's oeuvre).
Crazy - a contemporary novel of manners by Jozef Ignacy Kraszewski from 1879. It was written at the turn of 1878/79 on the order of Ludwik Jenike, but after his resignation from printing it was initially published in 1880 in the Warsaw magazine "Ateneum" (volume I [XVII] and II [XVIII]). The book edition was published only two years later by K. Kowalewski. During the author's lifetime the novel was published only in 1886 as part of a collective edition ("Selection of Writings") edited by P. Chmielowski.
