Agnieszka Osiecka, one of the most outstanding Polish songwriters, poets, writers, and journalists, touches on topics close to all of us in her columns with extraordinary lightness and humor. Her texts, full of irony and self-irony, have gained enormous popularity and are firmly embedded in the canon of Polish culture.

"Confidential Games" is not only a collection of columns, but also a chronicle of an era. The author has captured the reality of life in the Polish People's Republic with chronicler's accuracy, showing both its advantages and disadvantages. Even though times have changed, the problems that Osiecka addresses are still relevant. This book is an excellent read for anyone who wants to take a look at male-female relationships with a wink and find a little humor and distance in them.

Agata Passent, Agnieszka Osiecka's daughter, emphasizes in her introduction to the book that these columns have gained a new context in the era of self-help literature. Osiecka's texts mock not only this type of fraudulent advice, but also psychotherapy as such, offering the reader an intelligent alternative to superficial solutions and simplified schemes.
