Description
Pawel, a young Polish businessman, is in trouble; in debt to loan sharks his only hope lies with former friends, many of whom are now prominent in Warsaw’s drug-dealing underground. Embarking on a desperate fool’s-gold chase through the city’s grimy apartments and creaking transport system Pawel struggles for survival as part of a generation adrift in moral space and disconnected from family, neighbours and friends.Nine is a brilliant novel from one of Europe’s finest writers: both an existential crime novel and a major work of literature.

| About The Author | Born in Warsaw in 1960, Andrzej Stasiuk has risen to become one of the most important and interesting writers at work in Eastern Europe today. Author of over a dozen books and winner of many prizes, he came to writing in an unusual way: in the early 1980s, he deserted the army and spent a year and a half in prison for it. Afterwards he wrote a collection of short stories, The Walls of Hebron, about his experience, which became a huge success. He and his wife, Monika Sznajderman, run a small publishing house in Czarne. |
One of a number of cult writers to have emerged from post-communist central Europe… Stasiuk's prose has the easy flow of Kerouac's |
|
| Other text | Politicises the everyday so compellingly that it calls to mind the greatest work of John McGahern |
