Is it really that important that someone spoke many languages? Napoleon Bonaparte spoke Italian, yet I see no need to include this piece of information into the article about him...Halibutt 21:59, 10 Feb 2004 (UTC)
- BTW, who rediscovered his works recently? Such frase does not look very encyclopedish...Halibutt
[edit] Schulz referenced in Literature
Non-spoiled version: Suffice it to say that there is a character named Bruno in Nicole Krauss' The History of Love. This character is named after Bruno Schulz. --Superluser 02:56, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
In Nicole Krauss' The History of Love there are several references to Bruno Schulz and the Street of Crocodiles. Krauss' protagonist, Leopold Gursky is also a Polish writer who is made to be about twentythree in 1942 when Schulz was killed. He is in Poland at the time but escapes, ending up in New York. Much of the humanity so evident in the works of Schulz are just as present in that of Ms. Krauss.

My family's from Schulz's Home Town--and knew him personally! Yours truly, Ludvikus 22:58, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
I happen to own an original photograph showing my father, and aunt, standing and posing, together! My mother knew personally the Gestapo officers who kept him as a Jewish prisoner, and she learned, first hand, when he was shot dead by one of them.

He is considered by some to be another "Kafka".
