All of the stories, which were written within the last twenty-five years, are set in contemporary Poland, and are by authors generally considered to be among the most significant and interesting in post-World War II Poland. Each selection is preceded by an English-language biography and literary appreciation of the author. Problems that might be encountered by the reader – whether of a linguistic or cultural nature – are explained in footnotes, and a glossary at the end of the book contains all of the words occurring in the stories. There is no other reader dealing exclusively with twentieth-century Polish prose.\u003cbr\u003eMr. Schenker is chairman of the Department of Slavic Languages and Literature at Yale University.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Yale University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47024180232432,"sku":"9780300013269","price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780300013269_p0.jpg?v=1763669649","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780300013269","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
