The core of the set of letters come from Orchard Lake Schools in Michigan collection and was produced in Iwaszkiewicz's early life while his stay and study in Yelisavetgrad and Kiev. The future writer's addressee is Antoni S. Małłek, an American of Polish origin living in Mt. Pleasant, Pennsylvania, a few years Iwaszkiewicz's senior stenographer, bookkeeper and medical student. Apart from being testimony of Iwaszkiewicz's early life, his emotionality, character, dreams and expectations, the letters provide with facts sofar undiscussed by biographers, such as the writer's sister Anna of Iwaszkiewicz Krzeczkowska's marriage. Most probably, after the exchange of letters in the year 1926 the correspondence was not maintained. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
