The Polish writer and adventurer Arkady Fiedler visited Ambinanitelo in 1937 and resided there for several months, which was the subject of a travel book he wrote on his return to Poland giving a detailed account of the townspeople's daily life and culture, as well as some frictions with the French colonial authorities which he witnessed. This made the name of Ambinanitelo familiar to several generations of Polish readers, [3] and the book was also translated to several other languages.
