AbstractHistoryArchive Description

The essay comments on the hostile response of Polish Australian readers to the reprinting in a Polish satirical magazine Szpilki [Pins] of some of the author's satirical columns from the Polish Australian press. The author defends his record as a Polish patriot, referring to his imprisonment by the Polish Communist authorities in 1946 and subsequent escape from the country in 1950. He urges Polish Australians to be open to contact and cultural exchange with Poles in Poland, and to be mindful of how much easier it is to be critical of the Polish Communist regime from the safe distance of Australia than for those living in Poland.
