The Independent Publishing House NOWA (Polish: Niezależna Oficyna Wydawnicza NOWA, meaning "new" or "nova") was the first underground publishing house in the People's Republic of Poland (see samizdat). After opening in 1977, it soon became the largest independent publisher in Communist Poland. In 1989, after the fall of Communism and the change to a democratic political system, the publishing house changed its name to SuperNowa (meaning “supernew” or “supernova”) and became private in 1993. It continues to publish works to this day, including books by Andrzej Sapkowski.
