"The obvious must be stated - no translation of Norwid can match the original. It is impossible to climb to such heights as Norwid achieved. However, a translator can forge a path to those peaks. Kraszewski has undoubtedly done this. His translations read just as if walking a safe path."
#Poland

Charles S. Kraszewski’s skillful translation enhances the semantic value of the volume. The English-speaking reader should benefit from his elegant translation."

[…] Both Kraszewski’s translation and introduction are valuable texts.”

Thank you, Richard. Your words gave this book its new voice, its second life. No cover, no matter how striking, could ever capture what you've accomplished between those pages. That's the real art. The rest is just packaging for the truth you've delivered.

The old Dover editions were honest. Plain. True. But a man can admire simplicity while another builds something new. In the end, we're all just trying to keep good words alive. Some with fancy covers, some without. The words inside - that's the real fight worth having.

But tell me – what covers speak to you? Which publishers do it right? I want to see them. We learn, we build, we keep going. Always. Thanks!

Every sponsor we get? It goes straight to the translators. They’re the ones making these books live in another language.

Criticism is easy. Making books is hard. We do it anyway.

Glad you care. We do too. We’re the only ones bringing these books into the world, and we do it on our own dime. No backing. No safety net. Just work.

You think it’s all AI? It’s not. Most of these covers were drawn by hand. Before, we couldn’t even afford that.
