Karolina Bednarz and Anna Wołcyrz, experts on Japanese culture, set themselves an aim of explaining contemporary Japan and Asia in general to the Polish public. As a small publishing house, and one of the newest publishing houses in the Polish market, they want to present a full spectrum of Asian books - from Japan, to China, Korea, Singapore and other countries. For the Polish reader Tajfuny (meaning Typhoons in English) offers beautiful covers and expertise in fiction as well as non-fiction and poetry.
In Chmielna 12, located in a very central part of Warsaw, yet a bit off the beaten path of Chmielna, you will find a lovable corner you will spend hours in. Here you will also find books about Asia in English as well as gadgets such as bags, beautiful notebooks, sencha tea and many more. If you want to surprise your Polish-speaking friend, a voucher (starting from 50 PLN) is also a good idea.
