THE GREATEST BOOKS
YOU HAVE
NEVER HEARD OF
Mondrala Press publishes English translations of great Polish books—books with the track record of international
critical and commercial success but which, for political reasons, have never been published in English. Books which we wanted to share with our English-speaking friends.
 AD 1726. The Caribbean. An uninhabited island. A Virginian renegade. Pirates. Castaways. Runaway slaves. Cannibals. |  And they reach the end of the world: days without nights, 18-foot tides, monsters of the deep and the face of god upon the waters. |  The quirkiest, zaniest book about Plato ever written. |
