Dłonie czasu

The Hands of Time

The book belongs to the essayistic part of Andrzej Gronczewski’s work. It combines two perspectives: the essayistic outlook with a melancholy reflection on human existence and the history of culture, and most importantly on the form which both acquire through the passing of time. It is an original artistic work, a sort of an intellectual diary, a monologue of a literature scholar and an art Connoisseur.

Keywords: essay, intellectual diary, hands, time, literary canon.
