A collection of writings offers a revealing and provocative self-portrait of an author whose life was shrouded in enigma.
Jerzy Kosinski was one of the most important and original writers of his time.
Passing By serves as his legacy. This collection of essays by the late author features pieces about polo and skiing, levitation, the streets of New York, present-day Poland, the Cannes film festival, celebrities, and more. The man who emerges here has a passion for sport, a quirky sense of fun, an idiosyncratic range of acquaintances stretching from Pope John Paul II to Warren Beatty, and an abiding love of secrets, conundrums, and fantasies. But first and foremost, as he demonstrates in major essays on his novels
The Painted Bird and
Steps, Kosinski is a powerful, incomparable literary artist.
"Kosinski's vibrant, sexy, questioning voice is fully present." -
The Boston Globe
