Among the books I've slowly been making my way through but which I haven't reviewed yet is Witold Gombrowicz's Diary, recently re-published in a one-volume edition by Yale University Press; see their publicity page, or get your copy at Amazon.com or Amazon.co.uk.
Among the publishing highlights in Poland this year is apparently a new volume of autobiographical work by Gombrowicz, which is being published for the first time 23 May -- as Kronos; see the Wydawnictwo Literackie publicity page -- or the (Polish) book trailer. It's been getting a lot of attention, apparently also because of some of the shocking and salacious detail: as Polska headline a report, it apparently offers: Biseksualizm, przygody erotyczne i nędza imigranta.
See also the report at Expatica, Gombrowicz diary promises to expose Polish literary icon. I hope it's not all sensationalism and that it turns out to be worth translating, too.
