Summary/Abstract: According to Polish scholars Imre Kertész has had a far more serious reception in Poland than in Hungary. Perhaps the question is difficult to investigate but Maria Janion in her essay entitled „Even if I seem to be talking of something else entirely I am still talking about Auschwitz” seems to support this view, as Imre Kertész himself agreed, much touched by reading the translation of Janion’s article in manuscript.
