Diary Volume 3

This is the first English translation of Witold Gombrowicz’s Diary, the most Polish and the most universal of his works. Volume Three records Gombrowicz’s departure from Argentina for Europe, where he spends a year in Berlin and settles on the French Riviera. It details his friendship with Bruno Schulz, his reflections on Dante’s “monstrous work,” and his responses to the work of contemporaries, and in so doing reveals the core of a great writer’s sensibility.
