Pisane z Warszawy, Liliana Rydzynski , single work essay travel

The essay presents the author's impressions, during her stay in Warsaw in 1996, of life in Poland since the collapse of Communism. She comments on signs of growing economic inequality and expresses concern about evidence of continuing anti-Semitism in Poland. She commends the recent film 'Wielki Tydzień' (Holy Week) by Andrzej Wajda for confronting the unresolved history of Polish anti-Semitism. She also discusses (in positive terms) two new Polish books whose launches she attended in Warsaw, a dictionary of eponyms and a historical work about the Polish resistance to the Nazis in World War II.
