“Acclaimed as one of the finest Polish novels since World War II, “Ashes and Diamonds” takes us to a provincial town in the spring of 1945. The nation is in the throes of transformation to People’s Poland. Communists, socialists, and nationalists; thieves and black marketeers; servants and fading aristocrats; veteran terrorists and bands of murderous children bewitched by the lure of crime and adventure – all these converge on the town’s chief hotel, a microcosm of an uprooted world”.
