Nobody Leaves: Impressions of Poland by Ryszard Kapuściński

funny lighthearted medium-paced

3.5

This book was really good fun! Not much to say about it to be fair other than that everyone should read it!

It’s super short, super simple, it’s to the point and I love the style. I feel like it’s a pretty faithful translation. Even with my tiny knowledge of Polish it just mirrors the rhythm of the language super well.

Some of the lines in this book are just gorgeous and there are stories in here that have kept me thinking all day.

I want to read more of what Kapuściński has written, and I plan on revisiting this book again in the meantime and annotating it. There’s just so much to be found in this book about Poland, people, and the art of writing.
