The elephant by
Sławomir Mrozek(
Book
)
90 editions published between 1957 and 2014 in 7 languages and held by 828 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
An award-winning collection of hilarious and unnerving short stories, satirizing life in Poland under a totalitarian regime. The family of a wealthy lawyer keep a tamed progressive as a pet; a zoo saves money for the workers by fashioning their elephant from rubber; a swan is dismissed from the municipal park for public drunkenness; and under the Writers Association, literary critics are banished to the salt mines. In these tales of bureaucrats, officials and artists, Mrożek conjures perfectly a life of imagined crimes and absurd authority

Tango by
Sławomir Mrożek(
Book
)
93 editions published between 1964 and 2011 in 13 languages and held by 806 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
A tale about the conflict between generations, but basically it demonstrates the process, in which youthful idealism turns into unscrupulous struggle for power and paves way to despotism. Martin Esslin has argued, that the original Polish audience in Warsaw would have seen the work as a bitter and sardonic comment on Stalinism. "I am going to create a system in which rebellion will be combined with order, nonbeing with being," declares the young idealist, Arthur
