Hidden in the pages of Dawn: The Journal of Petroleum Officials in Boryslav for nearly a century, the short story "Undula" represents the likely literary debut of Bruno Schulz. Published under the pseudonym Marceli Weron, "Undula" teems with Schulz's unmistakble voice, offering an important look into the nascent workings of his writing mind. Long thought to have been a literary late-bloomer, this breathtaking story—risque even by his standards—provides a glimpse of the formative period of one of the twentieth century's great prose stylists.
