Recenzii

“Ferdydurke is certainly a spontaneous work, but the Diary is even more so, and . . . even more rewarding.”—John Bayley, New York Review of Books

“Get hold of Diary. If Gombrowicz is great—and he is—that is where his greatness lies.”—John Banville, New York Times

“A heroic translation. . . . English-speaking readers can finally experience the Diary as Gombrowicz intended it—as a single, coherent work . . . his major creative endeavor.”—Ruth Franklin, New Yorker

“Having this book in my hands, I felt a joy at the thought that strong personalities, like that of Gombrowicz, sooner or later find recognition thanks to the sheer intensity of their existence.”—Czeslaw Milosz, New York Times

“If ever a life demanded a diary, this was one.”—Paul West, Washington Post

“Yale University Press by reprinting in a beautiful fat paperback an updated, complete edition of the Diaries of Witold Gombrowicz has done a singular important, essential and remarkable job.”—Thomas McGonigle, ABC of Reading

“Widely considered the Polish author’s masterpiece . . . the Diary lacks for nothing: history, politics, philosophy, literature, art, music, love, death, humor, communism, Poland, Europe, writing—everything is there.”—Paris Review Daily

“The new complete version of Witold Gombrowicz’s Diary is one jubilant, gruesome, unsparing self-portrait.”—Adam Thirlwell, New Statesman

“The spiky brilliance and episodes of vivid experience that share the pages of the Diary with essay-length reflections give the collection as a whole a restive, fugitive rhythm. . . . A provocative experience.”—Eric Banks, Bookforum
