Niedziela zycia [Polish Language Edition] The Sunday of Life Queneau, Raymond [Raymond Queneau (21 February 1903 - 25 October 1976) was a French novelist, poet, critic, editor and co-founder and president of Oulipo, notable for his wit and cynical humour]. Translation by Hanna Igalson-Tygielska. (Book #ID 98239) Published by Biuro Literackie, Warsaw, Poland First Edition 2016. 2016. First edition in publisher's original colour illustrated stiff French flap card wrap covers [soft back]. 8vo. 9'' x 6''. The Sunday of Life is one of Raymond Queneau's three novels of wisdom - a very funny and serious book about days without tomorrow, about evil rooted in man. It opens with the motto of Hegel, and the title of the novel is a direct reference to the work of a German philosopher. Queneau's prose, however, has nothing of a dry treatise, on the contrary: it is rather a ready script for a movie, fast and brilliant dialogues, funny ideas and unexpected twists. Contains 199 printed pages of Polish text. In Very Good clean condition, no dust wrapper as issued. Member of the P.B.F.A.
