Synopsis:
Presents selections from the author's diaries from 1957 through 1966
Review: "One of the most remarkable works of modern literature: Gombrowicz's great unscrolling of spleen, playfulness, opposition, brilliance, and subversion. . . . Essential." "Kirkus Reviews"" "Every page contains speculation and query about the human condition, brilliant perceptions and criticisms of Rimbaud or Sienkiewicz, Nietzsche or Camus." --John Bayley, "New York Review of Books" "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 Book Review"
