Description of the book:

Wiesław Myśliwski's great novel. The narrator in a monologue addressed to the mysterious newcomer makes a balance of his whole life. To what extent did he himself influence his fate, and how much he was shaped by traumatic childhood experiences and the twists of Polish history?” Myśliwski's novel is a kind of meditation on the role of fate and chance in human life. A beautiful, wise book that I want to return to. NIKE Literary Award 2007. Gdynia Literary Award 2007. Book of the Year 2006 “Literary Magazine BOOK”.
