About Sergiusz Piasecki
- Sergiusz Piasecki (Polish pronunciation: ['s?rg?u? pja's?t?sk?i]; 1901 in Lachowicze near Baranowicze – 1964 in Penley) - was one of the best known Polish language writers of the mid 20th century.
- His crowning achievement, Kochanek Wielkiej Niedzwiedzicy (Lover of the Ursa Major or Lover of the Greater Bear) published in 1937, was the third most popular novel in the Second Polish Republic.
- Following World War II, Piasecki's books were banned by communist censorship in the People's Republic of Poland. After the collapse of the Soviet empire, in early 1990s, Kochanek Wielkiej Niedzwiedzicy became again one of the best selling books in the country according to Rzeczpospolita daily.
- Another one of his novels, an anti-Soviet satire Zapiski oficera Armii Czerwonej (The memoirs of a Red Army officer), had already been reprinted several times.
