Few more words about our guest
Krzysztof Piskorski – novelist, publicist, fan of history and good books. He has turned his experience with writing a variety of texts – literature, games and scripts, radio plays – into cycles of interesting lectures and columns. Last year he won the Zajdel and the Żuławski awards for his novel Czterdzieści i cztery (Forty and four), in which Slavic magic and strange technology had changed nineteenth-century Poland. He is also the author of the Zajdel awarded novel which has also been nominated in Russia for Fantasy of the Year 2017 – Cienioryt, a swashbuckling story set in a unique world in which shadows are something more than just lack of light.
