A meeting with Piotr Sarzyński, from POLITYKA weekly magazine

The Baltic Sea Cultural Centre, 12-04-2012

A meeting with Piotr Sarzyński, from POLITYKA weekly magazine

Compere of the meeting will be dr. Jacek Friedrich

START: 18:00
ENTRY: Free

During the meeting there will be an opportunity to buy the book in a bargain price!!

As publisher is describing, Scream in the universe is a book for those, who are attacked by everyday ugliness in different forms – bad taste, rubbish, pseudo elegancy; and are determined not to cope with it anymore. The publication has gained very good response, and because of that, the author decided to start a blog with the same title as his book.
We hope that the outcome of the meeting in Gdańsk will be very stormy – subjects definitely won’t run out.
