Ferdydurke is a novel by Polish writer Witold Gombrowicz, published in 1937. Considered one of the most important works of 20th-century Polish literature, the novel explores themes of immaturity, form, and the struggle for authenticity in an oppressive society. The protagonist, a 30-year-old man, is suddenly returned to high school, where he must confront the absurd conventions and rituals of student life. With a preface by Ernesto Sábato, this Edhasa edition offers a valuable introduction to Gombrowicz's work.
Witold Marian Gombrowicz was a Polish writer and playwright. His works are characterised by deep psychological analysis, a certain sense of paradox and absurd, anti-nationalist flavor. In 1937, he published his first novel, Ferdydurke, which presented many of his usual themes: problems of immaturity and youth, creation of identity in interactions with others, and an ironic, critical examination of class roles in Polish society and culture.
