Bruno Schulz, a modest painter and drawing teacher from Drohobych, gained fame thanks to his stories, which combine autobiographical elements with fantastic visions. His work, although initially met with mixed reception, is now considered one of the most important achievements of Polish literature of the 20th century. In his works, Schulz creates a unique microcosm in which the boundaries between reality and dream blur, and everyday events take on a deep, symbolic meaning.
"The Cinnamon Shops" is a collection of stories in which Schulz creates a world of childhood, full of mysterious shops, extraordinary characters, and an atmosphere of dreamlike sleep. The reader, along with the narrator, wanders through the streets of Drohobych, discovering hidden corners of memory and imagination. Each story is an intricate mosaic of images, sounds, and scents that together create an unforgettable whole. It is a read for those who appreciate the beauty of language, the depth of metaphors, and the originality of vision.
The new edition of "The Cinnamon Shops" is a treat for all Schulz lovers. In addition to the well-known and appreciated stories, the volume also includes four lesser-known works: "Autumn", "Republic of Dreams", "Comet", and "Homeland". Thanks to this, the reader has the opportunity to further explore the work of this outstanding writer and discover new aspects of his talent. The book is published in hardcover, which ensures its durability and elegance. It is an ideal gift for anyone who appreciates fine literature and is looking for a read that will remain in their memory for a long time.
"The style of this book illuminates and examines reality as if from the inside out, showing it distorted and true, like a tissue under a microscope - heightened and threatening truth. An extremely interesting book, to which one returns again and again to experience new surprises, which one reads anew in different directions, at different depths" - Zofia Nałkowska.
