Książki raport – Amerykański dyptyk część 1 „Anioły” Denis Johnson.
A tale of two Americas – one of dreams, one of nightmares. Two writers, quintessentially American and quintessentially different: Francis Scott Fitzgerald and Denis Johnson. Fitzgerald's America pulses with jazz, champagne in hand, gazing at skyscrapers reaching for the sky, believing dreams of success and prosperity come true. Johnson's America arrives decades later – poor, devoid of dreams, without a chance. No one sees it, no one listens. What does the story of these two writers tell us about contemporary America? We invite you to an American diptych in "Report on Books." In this episode, we will talk about Denis Johnson's debut novel "Angels," translated into Polish by Krzysztof Majer 42 years after its first American publication. Next Monday, we will discuss Maciej Świerkocki's new translation of Fitzgerald's most famous novel – "The Great Gatsby."
