In den WarenkorbZustand: Fine condition. Second edition. Numbered copy. Second edition. Numbered copy. In publisher's wrappers with the emblem of the Polish Red Cross on the front, stamped number on the rear. 15 [1] p. (binding included). Scarce Borowski publication. Poszukiwania (Tracing) is a rare and historically significant publication by T…adeusz Borowski and Krystyn Olszewski. Published in 1945 by Oficyna Warszawska, a press founded in Munich by Anatol Girs, the work serves as both a literary and humanitarian artifact of the immediate post-World War II period. Anatol Girs, a celebrated Polish graphic artist and concentration camp survivor, established the press to preserve Polish cultural identity in exile and address pressing social issues, including aiding displaced persons and Holocaust survivors. The pamphlet was created to support the Polish Red Cross (Polski Czerwony Krzy?), specifically its Family Tracing Office, which worked to reunite families torn apart by the war. The preface notes that the poems included were written by staff of the Family Tracing Office and published to raise funds for its activities. Tadeusz Borowski is one of the most important Polish writers to emerge in the aftermath of World War II. Born in Zhytomyr, Ukraine, he moved to Warsaw in 1932. During the war, he studied literature clandestinely and published his first poetry under German occupation. Arrested in 1943, he was deported to Auschwitz, an experience that profoundly shaped his writing. His post-war works, including This Way for the Gas, Ladies and Gentlemen (Po?egnanie z Mari?, 1948), are renowned for their stark, unflinching portrayals of life in the concentration camps and the moral ambiguities of survival. After the war, Borowski briefly aligned with Poland's socialist regime but struggled with ideological pressures and personal disillusionment. He tragically died by suicide in 1951 at the age of 28. Extremely scarce despite a relatively large print run, likely due to its fragile pamphlet format. WorldCat locates only one copy of the 1945 first edition, held in the National Library of Poland, and four copies of the second edition (1946), with only one outside Poland (University of Wisconsin). Reference: Drewnowski, T. (editor): Postal indiscretions. The Correspondence of Tadeusz Borowski. [Evanston, Ill.]: Northwestern University Press, 2007. . In publisher's wrappers with the emblem of the Polish Red Cross on the front, stamped number on the rear.

In den WarenkorbFirst edition. Presentation copy, inscribed by Krystyn Olszewski, one of the authors. Numbered. In publisher's cloth, designed by Anatol Girs, cut from concentration camp uniform, a badge of the political prisoners mounted by sewing on the front panel. 212, (4) p. Extremely scarce inscribed copy of a book widely regarded as the…first published account of the realities of Nazi concentration camps, and one of very few copies bound in cloth cut from original striped concentration camp uniforms. The initiator and publisher of the book was Anatol Girs, a leading Polish graphic artist and publisher, and a survivor of Auschwitz and the DachauAllach concentration camp, where he was liberated. After liberation, Girs founded the publishing house Oficyna Warszawska na Obczy?nie in Munich. Its first publication was Imiona nurtu (1945), the first officially published book by Tadeusz Borowski. The present book is the third publication of Oficyna Warszawska, dedicated to the American Seventh Army, and written by three young Polish former inmates of Auschwitz: Janusz Nel Siedlecki, Krystyn Olszewski, and Borowski. Byli?my w O?wi?cimiu (We Were in Auschwitz) is among the earliest accurate descriptions of Auschwitz. Girs acted as a mentor to the authors and, according to Borowski's wife, exerted "an enormous moral and intellectual influence" on Borowski. Girs also designed the book's cover. Besides the regular issuebound in prison-striped hard paper and bearing a printed, numbered camp badge of Janusz Nel Siedlecki (no. 6643)a very small number of copies were bound in cloth cut from original concentration camp uniforms, with a fabric camp badge sewn on. Two variants of these exceptional bindings were exhibited in 2002 at Yale University in the exhibition Anatol Girs: Book Designer, together with Girs's personal copy bound in leather cut from an SS officer's coat. The present copy is inscribed by Krystyn Olszewski to a certain Alexander, "after the first attempt of friendship" (Olkowi po pierwszej próbie przyja?ni), Warsaw, 20 September 1948. Olszewski (19212004) was imprisoned in Auschwitz, Pawiak, Gross-Rosen, Buchenwald, and Dachau. After the war, he returned to Poland, studied architecture at the Warsaw University of Technology, and later worked as an urban planning designer in Warsaw, Baghdad, and Singapore. Byli?my w O?wi?cimiu is generally described as a collective memoir by the three former prisoners and contains early versions of texts later developed in Borowski's Po?egnanie z Mari? (1948; Farewell to Maria). Borowski's biographer Tadeusz Drewnowski argued in his 1962 study, however, that the book is largely Borowski's work, noting his substantial co-authorship and editorial shaping of the contributions of his fellow prisoners. Tadeusz Borowski (19221951) was a Polish writer and journalist. He was involved in underground organizations during WWII in occupied Poland until 1943 when he was arrested and deported to Auschwitz. After the liberation, he stayed in Germany for some months and his first officially published books appeared in Munich. In June 1946, he returned to Poland, began to work for the Communist party as a journalist, he wrote and published the books of his stories about the concentration camps. In 1951, at the age of 28 as a disillusioned man, he committed suicide. Tadeusz Borowski (19221951) was a Polish writer and journalist involved in underground resistance activities in occupied Poland. Arrested in 1943, he was deported to Auschwitz and later transferred to Dachau. After liberation, he remained in Germany for several months, where his first books were published in Munich. He returned to Poland in 1946, worked as a journalist affiliated with the Communist Party, and became increasingly disillusioned with the regime. He published his major camp narratives before taking his own life in 1951, amid this political and moral disillusionment, at the age of twenty-eight.
