اثرى دور از انتظار وغير قابل باور بعنوان رمانى كه براى نويسنده ،هنريك سينيكيويچ لهستانى يكى از اولين جايزه هاى تاريخ نوبل ادبيات را به يادگار گذاشته است.

حينما بدأت في قراءة الرواية لم أكن أتصور أن توجد رواية تاريخية بهذا الجمال والروعة والكمال الأدبي، لم أكن أتوقع أن تخبئ لي هذه الرواية ذات ال ٨٠٠ صفحة أجمل قصة حبّ قرأتها ذات يوم وأصفى درجات العشق، قلت لنفسي حين فتحت الرواية للتو كيف سأنهي ٨٠٠ صفحة، سأصاب بالممل بلا شك وربما سأتوقف عن قراءتها قبل أن
