Moments of Reprieve
ISBN: 9780141186979 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. Primo Levi was one of the most astonishing voices to emerge from the twentieth century: a man who survived one of the ugliest times in history, yet who was able to describe his own Auschwitz experience with an unaffected tenderness. Levi was a master storyteller but he did not write fairytales. These stories are an elegy to the human figures who stood out against the tragic background of Auschwitz, 'the ones in whom I had recognized the will and capacity to react, and hence a rudiment of virtue'. Each centres on an individual who - whether it be through a juggling trick, a slice of apple or a...

The Periodic Table
ISBN: 9780805210415 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. (Book Jacket Status: Jacketed)
The Periodic Table is largely a memoir of the years before and after Primo Levi s transportation from his native Italy to Auschwitz as an anti-Facist partisan and a Jew. It recounts, in clear, precise, unfailingly beautiful prose, the story of the Piedmontese Jewish community from which Levi came, of his years as a student and young chemist at the inception of the Second World War, and of his investigations into the nature of the material world. As such, it provides crucial links and backgrounds, both personal and intellectual, in the tremendous... (Book Jacket Status: Jacketed)

Voice of Memory: Interviews 1961 - 1987
ISBN: 9780745621500 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Over the course of more than twenty-five years, Primo Levi gave more than two hundred newspaper, journal, radio and television interviews speaking with such varied authors as Philip Roth and Germaine Greer. Marco Belpoliti and Robert Gordon have selected and translated thirty-six of the most important of these interviews for The Voice of Memory. We recognize the voice familiar to us from Levi's masterpieces, from The Periodic Table to The Drowned and the Saved. But we also see a fuller, more varied and more complex picture of the writer famously shrouded in his past. There is Levi...

The Wrench
ISBN: 9780349138633 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. 'This is not a book for journalists. Civil servants, too, will feel uneasy while reading it, and as for lawyers, they will never sleep again. For it is about a man in his capacity as homo faber, a maker of things with his hands, and what has any of us ever made but words. I say it is "about" the man who makes; truly, it is more a hymn of praise than a description, and not only because the toiler who is the hero of the book is a hero indeed - a figure, in his humanity, simplicity, worthy of inclusion in the catalogue of mythical giants alongside Hercules, Atlas, Gargantua and Orion. He is...

The Monkey's Wrench
ISBN: 9781501167669 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. A chemist-turned-writer and a construction rigger in a remote factory pass the time swapping tales of their lives and voyages. Primo Levi's most light-hearted novel, The Monkey's Wrench is a tribute to storytelling, human ingenuity, and the importance of finding meaningful work in life. "A lot of stories have happened to me," says Faussone, the mysterious construction rigger at the center of this comic novel by Primo Levi. Far from home on a work assignment, Libertino Faussone befriends the book's narrator, a chemist based loosely off of Levi himself. Although he can't quite...

Tranquil Star: Unpublished Stories
ISBN: 9780393331615 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 170 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. These seventeen stories, first published in Italian between 1949 and 1986, demonstrate Levi's extraordinary range, taking the reader from the primal resistance of a captured partisan fighter to a middle-aged chemist experimenting with a new paint that wards off evil, to the lustful thoughts of an older man obsessed with a mysterious woman in a seaside villa. In the title story, Levi demonstrates his unerringly tragic understanding of the fragility of the universe through the tale of a pensive astronomer, terrified by the possibility that a long-dormant star might explode and reduce the entire...

If This Is A Man/The Truce
ISBN: 9780349100135 / Angielski / Miękka / 1988 / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. With the moral stamina and intellectual pose of a twentieth-century Titan, this slightly built, duitful, unassuming chemist set out systematically to remember the German hell on earth, steadfastly to think it through, and then to render it comprehensible in lucid, unpretentious prose. He was profoundly in touch with the minutest workings of the most endearing human events and with the most contempible. What has survived in Levi's writing isn't just his memory of the unbearable, but also, in THE PERIODIC TABLE and THE WRENCH, his delight in what made the world exquisite to him. He was himself...

Czy to jest człowiek, Rozejm, Pogrążeni i ocaleni
ISBN: 9788381918565 / Polski / twarda / 590 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 1-3 dni roboczych. Ze wstępem Dariusza Czai
Można by rzec, że odyseja obozowa kończy się mimo wszystko szczęśliwie – bohater ocalał. Jednak Levi, podobnie jak wielu innych więźniów nazistowskich obozów, wraca do punktu wyjścia już jako zupełnie inny człowiek: naznaczony, spopielały, z trawiącym go poczuciem wstydu z powodu tego, że przeżył. Levi opuścił Auschwitz, ale Auschwitz nie opuściło go nigdy. Przenikało jego życie i jego myślenie niedostrzegalnie, ale skutecznie, aż do niejasnej, zagadkowej śmierci w kwietniu 1987 roku. Rok pobytu w obozie zagłady naznaczył go na... Ze wstępem Dariusza Czai

The Drowned And The Saved
ISBN: 9780349138640 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. Shortly after completing The Drowned and the Saved, Primo Levi committed suicide. The manner of his death was sudden, violent and unpremeditated, and there are some who argue that he kiled himself because he was tormented by guilt - guilt that he had survived the horrors of Auschwitz while others, better than he, had gone to the wall. 'The Drowned and the Saved dispels the myth that Primo Levi forgave the Germans for what they did to his people. He didn't, and couldn't forgive. He refused, however, to indulge in what he called "the bestial vice of hatred" which is an entirely different...
