This is an automatically translated description
A literary biography of Józefina Szelinska (1905-1991), the bride of Bruno Schulz (1892-1942), a Polish writer and artist who made Drohobych an important point on the world artistic and literary map. The love of these two people lasted only four years, but for the rest of his life he remained with Józefina, or Yuna, as he called her. She was a baptised Jew who constantly struggled with her Jewish shadow, which did not save her from anti-Semitic purges in the Polish People's Republic. She was a Polish teacher, a gymnasium teacher, who loved romantic poets and read Rilke's poetry with Bruno. Most of all, she wanted to be with Bruno, to devote herself to him completely. She was a Catholic, so she could not officially marry a man of the Jewish faith. A woman who did not want to share her beloved with other women or his obsession with art. Because of her lost dream, she attempted suicide - she survived, but without Bruno. Her second attempt, many years later, was successful. She never stopped thinking about him and punishing herself for not being able to save him from death, or at least try to save him... Agata Tushynska's book is about passionate love and horrible death, about literature and art, about human life and its defencelessness.
