This is an automatically translated description
The distinctive figure of Zuzanna Ginczanka (1917-1944) has only recently attracted the attention of Ukrainian readers. Born in Kyiv to a Jewish family, she became a famous Polish poet of the interwar period. However, Zuzanna's life was a short, bright flash, as she became a victim of the Holocaust at the age of 27. The poet's passionate lyrics are not only a manifestation of her extraordinary talent, but also a living testimony to the tragedy of the Jewish people, the personification of great creative energy that was not destined to be realised.
The collection contains translations of fifty of Zuzanna Hinczanka's best poems and covers different periods of her work.
The publication is illustrated with archival photographs of Zuzanna Ginczanka and her friends (30s of the twentieth century) from the collection of the Muzeum Literatury im.
