Love is glory, desire and humiliation at the same time…

SONY DSCThis is a picture of myself reading the book by Bruno Schulz The Book of Drawings. Bruno Schulz is one of the most distinguished Polish-Jewish writers, murdered by the Gestapo in 1942, says Mr Piotr Marciszuk, President of the Federation of European Publishers.

His work consists of many short-stories (embraced in one not very thin book) and of uncanny drawings, which depict the diversity of human nature: Myth is intermingled with fantasy, rationality with perversion. Love is glory, desire and humiliation at the same time… The reader is still anxious while reading his works and looking at his drawings – uncertain of his own status and feelings…, added Mr Marciszuk.
