<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Gombrowicz is one of the most original and gifted writers of the twentieth century: he belongs at the very summit, at the side of his kindred spirits, Kafka and Celine." The Washington Post<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><P>"A Kind of Testament" is part autobiography and part justification of the life's work of one of Poland's most important novelists and playwrights. Written in France in 1968, this personal testimony is more than just a life history or a critique of his work. "A Kind of Testament" stands as a testament to how Gombrowicz came to be the person and writer that he was and overlap between the two.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>[Gombrowicz is] one of the profoundest of the late moderns. --John Updike<br><br>Gombrowicz s art cannot be measured with the passing of decades. It is a monument of Polish prose. --Czeslaw Milosz<br><br>What we have here is an unusual manifestation of a writing talent. --Bruno Schulz<br><br>In his native Poland he is something of a saint both a literary icon and a hero of bored school kids.<br>
