Stanisław Jerzy Lec loved epigrams and wrote them throughout his life. These short, versified works are not only a reflection of his sense of humor but also a testimony to his way of thinking. As an epigrammatist equal to the skill of the father of Polish epigram - Jan Kochanowski - he was able to fully reflect the diversity of this genre: next to frivolous reflective ones, next to customary philosophical ones, next to feasting satirical ones, and even next to cheerful sad ones, although this is rare. He often created micro-narratives in epigrams that refer to specific events, people, or current issues occupying society.
Lec is undoubtedly a master of the epigram, which he most fully expressed in his "Unkempt Thoughts," and his epigrams are in no way inferior to aphorisms, they are equally brilliant, ironic, and timeless. It is an ideal gift for anyone who appreciates intelligent entertainment and deep reflections. The hardcover edition with a dust jacket makes the book look elegant and will be an ornament to any bookshelf.
