" Jerzy Grotowski s Journeys to the East" is an unusual collection of facts, quotations, and commentaries documenting the real and metaphorical journeys of the Polish theatre director and teacher of performers into a geographical and cultural dimension which we used to and still call the Orient. Grotowski s contacts and meetings with the East are placed here in the context of his biography. Painstakingly researched by Grotowski s main biographer Zbigniew Osi ski, this book is necessary reading for those interested in Grotowski s deep relationship with the East and in the inspiration he drew from its various cultures. The book will appeal to all readers who feel a need to have a glimpse of the East from the perspective of one of the main theatre reformers in the twentieth century."
