Stanisław Dygat (5 December 1914, Warsaw – 29 January 1978, Warsaw) was a Polish writer.[1][2] His most famous novel, "Jezioro Bodeńskie" ("Lake Constance"), was written during World War II and published in 1946. All of his works are partly autobiographical (ex. because of his French origin, he was an internee in Constance in 1939).
