About this audiobook
Jan Nowicki – Actor and Writer, or Rather, Writer and Actor.
Discover the extraordinary life and creative journey of Jan Nowicki—one of Poland’s most outstanding actors—through the ebook "Jan Nowicki. A Friend’s Portrait" by Dariusz Domański. This exceptional book is part of the prestigious Golden Collection "Portraits of Friends", which showcases the greatest personalities of Polish theater and film.
"One of the most fascinating acting talents in Polish theater…"—as Jerzy Jarocki once described him. I would add: one of the most fascinating literary minds as well. A hero of Mrożek’s plays and Dostoevsky’s novels. Doctor Faust and Wielki Szu (The Great Szu). To me, he was not just a friend and guide through the world of theater but, above all, Grand Duke Konstanty from Stanisław Wyspiański’s November Night in Andrzej Wajda’s legendary staging.
Jan Nowicki is the author of 11 books, the latest being "Szczęśliwy bałagan" (Happy Chaos)—a collection of his correspondence with Marek Kondrat from 2018 to 2022. In 2019, he was admitted to the Polish Writers’ Association, cementing his status as a literary figure.
