Summary/Abstract: The review is an editor’s insight into the second volume of Witold Gombrowicz’s “Collected Works”, containing a proposal of “canonical” text of the novel “Ferdydurke” edited by Włodzimierz Bolecki. The edition in question is not a critical one in the classical sense, but rather an introduction into such understood edition. While including a number of interesting ideas of interpretation, the volume neglects the philological matter, the evidence of which can be the size of editor’s notes (a little more than half a page of the novel, and more than 700 pages of the editorial!). Thus, the model for the following volumes should rather be the first volume “Bakakaj and other stories” edited by Zdzisław Łapiński. The second volume is an interesting monograph unfinished from the editor’s view.
