Many of you is saying now: ok nice, but who exactly Magdalena Witkiewicz is? And that's why I'm in a hurry to tell you something more about her.
Magdalena Witkiewicz is a Polish writer and graduate of, f.e. the University of Gdańsk. She wrote and published seven books for adults: Milaczek [2008; second edition 2013], Panny Roztropne [2009; second edition 2013], Opowieść niewiernej [2011], Ballada o ciotce Matyldzie [2013], Szkoła żon [2013], Zamek z piasku [2013], and also for children: Lilka i spółka [2013].
You can find more information about writer on her official page or on her official page on FB.
This meeting was mainly about her newest book Zamek z piasku [Sand castle] but also about her previous books. The author told about history and about the process of coming into existence of this book and about everything, what we can find in the book.
Zamek z piasku [Sand castle] isn't an easy book, as she said, because this book is about love, marriage, desire to have a child, solitude and...just desire.
Magdalena Witkiewicz told about the whole process when she talked with others about all of these problems included in the book, especially about desire to have a child.
Mrs Magdalena Witkiewicz told also about her plans for the future, ideas for the next books and also about her inspiration - music. As she said music is a base for writing the book, the same was with newest book Zamek z piasku [Sand castle].
On many pages we can find and read many positive reviews, so one thing is true - she very good writer. Not only because of things about which she is writing, but also about her energy with all of these book, and not only. If you are on any meeting with her and you're talking with her or only listening to what she's talking, you're feeling such a positive energy and you're smiling. Really. Mrs Magdalena Witkiewicz is such a nice person.
If you will find book with name "Magdalena Witkiewicz" on the cover, when you will be able to read one of her books - buy it nad read.
To be honest, I have three of her seven books but they're still wating for "better times" because always I have to read something for "now" <shame on me>, but I promise (myself and you all) that when I'll finish my current book, I'll read Zamek z piasku [Sand castle] and then I'll write small or big review with my opinion about it.
For now, I'm keeping my fingers crossed for Mrs Magdalena Witkiewicz and her future and also I'm waiting for something new by her. And as I think we will be able to see some novelty soon, very soon.
