Michał Bałucki (1837-1901), author of comedies and prose writer. A classical representative of Polish theatre, who has remained popular till this day. Why did a respected and liked man, praised for his sense of humour, depart from this world in such strange circumstances and decided to commit suicide in Krakow's Planty Park Ring? What was Krakow like in those times? What used to be read, who thought what? And what did they discuss?
The World of Michał Bałucki is a collective monograph of the writer. In fact, the only one. It contains a new comprehensive approach to his poetic, comedy, prose, and critical works, complemented with facts that have remained unknown. In this 'world', readers will find a wealth of details and the order of a complete picture.
