About meI am a Polish Canadian, and read mainly in English. I read a lot of books in Polish in the years from my childhood to young adulthood, and still read some Polish fiction and non-fiction now, but most of the books I read are in English with an occasional book in German.
About my libraryA mixture of fiction and non-fiction, books owned and read, owned and unread, and borrowed and read.
I have been keeping more or less accurate records for the last four or five years. Everything before then is approximate.

His verse is interesting, and as one would expect, thoughtful, philosophical, aphoristic and engaged politically, morally and viscerally with the world around him. It's something all fans of Kapuscinski should read, a book that meant a lot to him, and that he worked very hard to see published before his death. It's a shame, alas, that he did not quite make it.
Anyway, it's available from Biblioasis. Online (www.biblioasis.com, www.amazon.com) and anywhere else you can find good books. Check it out.
(Sorry: I am an interested party: the publisher. But we're a small, literary press, and we're just doing our best to let anyone who might be interested know about this collection. Pardon my intrusion.)

Cheers.
