Ryszard Kapuscinski - Artur Domosławski - książka
Producent: Verso , Czerwiec 2013
In this insightful biography, Artur Domoslawski offers a fresh perspective on the intensely charismatic yet private life of Ryszard Kapuscinski. The book delves deeply into the core issue that shaped Kapuscinski's career – the balance and friction between journalism and literature. Domoslawski, an accomplished foreign correspondent in his own right, had extraordinary access to Kapuscinski's personal documents. This enabled him to meticulously trace his mentor's path across Africa and Latin America, explore the archives and documents Kapuscinski studied, and engage with individuals Kapuscinski interacted with on his journey. The result is a captivating and detailed portrait of a man driven by insatiable curiosity amidst tumultuous times.Praised by the Guardian as "a truly great achievement," Domoslawski's biography is not just a record of Kapuscinski's travels but a profound examination of the moral and ethical challenges journalists faced while reporting on significant global events of the late 20th century. Neal Ascherson, writing for the London Review of Books, describes it as a "compelling, exhaustive and often upsetting book" that reopens unresolved questions of journalistic integrity. The Economist highlights the biography's impartial approach, noting that despite Domoslawski's friendship with Kapuscinski, he pursued an objective inquiry with depth and clarity, providing fresh insights along the way. Booklist emphasizes the book’s candid exploration of Kapuscinski’s enigmatic character and the broader question of whether journalism can accommodate more 'literary approaches.'
