If you think that by the fact of read so many books of Ryszard Kapuściński you possesed enough knowledge about the topics he was writing and nothing can possibly surprise, touch and move you, you are wrong. This book brings so many memories and thoughts. Those notes are accurate and truly transfer you to the events they are all about. Books of Mr. Kapuściński should be read by all the people, and the world would be way better. I still learn a lot from each his book, and I'm becoming sad, that nothing new will come from this genius and genuine reporter. Lapidaria is a true journey full of pleasure, fun and sadness at the same time. Entire human life and seemingly simple but extremly complicated processes related to it in pure analysis with brilliant and sharp commentary.

Sam autor powiedział w tekście, że czytanie takich książek to jak jedzenie ciasta, w którym są same rodzynki. Mogłoby to powodować niestrawność, ale to Kapuściński więc pozostaje tylko uczucie realnego fizycznego zmęczenia w starciu z tym tytanicznym umysłem. A potem gigantyczna satysfakcja!

Zbiór zawiera trzy tomy Lapidariów Kapuścińskiego. Krótkie notki na różne tematy = wspaniały przykład krótkiej, a treściwej formy.

Książka, która pozwala zatrzymać się i spojrzeć na świat z innej strony. Każdy akapit krzyczy do Ciebie, z każdego akapitu wylewa się mądrość słów autora i ciężar jego doświadczeń.
