Warsaw. Zofia Nałkowska runs some errands for Bruno Schulz.

In an entry of 21 May 1934 Zofia Nałkowska* mentions in her Diaries that the next day she will have to deal with several issues, some of which concern Bruno Schulz. “All this1 will end tomorrow, when I have to take a lot of actions (matters concerning Szper2, Szymanowski3, Schulz and a few minor ones, my tax, my business and finally the thought of leaving in June to England)”4. It is unknown, though, what these matters were. (mr) (transl. mw)
