A lively and playful exploration of human interaction, self-knowledge and humankind's connection to the land, Stone Upon Stone is without doubt one of the most stunning achievements of modern literature and - in the English-speaking world - a hitherto unsung classic. Capturing both the playfulness and the gravitas of the Polish original, Bill Johnston's excellent translation will have readers hooked from the very first page, as they follow Mysliwski's stubborn yet questioning country-bumpkin narrator rebel against his fate.
