Are they sufficiently honoring the peace and freedom denied to the characters seen here in World War II Poland? Or are they, like the Americans observed by Milosz in another book, using their distance from the upheavals of history for no more than the equivalent of watching TV in a bar? Whatever the answer, a Western reader has to feel a humbling admiration for the depicted resisters of Nazi and then Soviet tyranny, precursors of the Solidarity heroes whose second anniversary was celebrated last month. (August) And what of those who gave up resisting then - or now? Milosz fascinatingly explores the characters able to rationalize compliance with a repressive regime. Here, for example, is a writer forced into a pact with the communist devil, accepting a printing press from the authorities, trying to place conditions on the selling of his soul, bleakly imagining the dark years ahead. It is a brief, telling fictional -vignette to accompany the analysis of artists snared by Stalinism for which Milosz's ''The Captive Mind'' is known. 001409115 647_7 $$aWorld War$$d(1939-1945)$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01180924 001409115 648_7 $$a1900-1999$$2fast 001409115 650_0 $$aWorld War, 1939-1945$$vFiction. 001409115 650_0 $$aCommunism$$vFiction. 001409115 650_0 $$aPolish fiction$$y20th century. 001409115 650_7 $$aPolish fiction.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01068916 001409115 650_7 $$aCommunism.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst00870421 001409115 655_7 $$aWar fiction.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01922585 001409115 655_7 $$aFiction.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01423787 001409115 655_7 $$aWar stories.$$2gsafd 001409115 655_7 $$aWar fiction.$$2lcgft 001409115 7001_ $$aWieniewska, Celina,$$etranslator. 001409115 77608 $$iOnline version:$$aMiłosz, Czesław.$$sZdobycie władzy.
