The Coming Spring by Stefan Zeromski

Zeromski's final novel, follows Cezary Baryka, a young Pole who escapes the chaos of the Russian Revolution in Baku and undertakes a harrowing journey west with his father, ultimately reaching newly independent Poland alone after his father's death en route.

Stefan Zeromski (1864–1925) is universally acknowledged as the most outstanding Polish novelist of his generation. He was a writer with a strong social conscience, taking up the concerns of the poor and downtrodden. In the 1920’s Zeromski was a leading contender for the Nobel Prize for Literature; his candidacy was supported by Joseph Conrad, who was a fervent admirer of his work.

Bill Johnston is professor of Comparative Literature at Indiana University, Bloomington. He translates from Polish and is deeply involved in ALTA, the American Literary Translators Association.
