Review # 1 was written on 2016-12-24 00:00:00 Tariq Adl Bey A very important piece of work and well done. In reading this you get to experience the life and times of the writer and poet Tadeusz Borowski with his circle of family, friends and associates ... to an extent. It was enough for me to appreciate the life that was and make me want to explore further his work and the social issues that plagued the European continent at that time in human history. I am grateful that the correspondence gathered to complete this book still exists.

Review # 2 was written on 2010-08-10 00:00:00 Peter S. Hamilton I didn't finish this one. It's not going to be of any value unless you know a lot about Tadeusz Borowski and Polish literature in general -- neither of which applies to me. Only one of Borowski's books has been translated into English, and I didn't even know he'd written anything else until I started this book. All the references etc. in the letters meant nothing to me and I realized that completing this book would not be a productive enterprise. Not saying it's a bad book -- I'm not even qualified to offer an opinion, because I don't know enough about the topic, that's all.
