Zbigniew Domino: Polish Siberiada

Domino's novel is the most serious and comprehensive storytelling about the emigration known from Polish literature. It is about the fate of people, who were on the basis the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact, displaced by Red Army from east part of Polland to northeastern part of former Soviet Union. The picture of character's mood, their anxiety, needs to be percieved as a truthful, not bound by demagogy, bias and grudge. Polish Siberiada represents an ambitious and authentic novel, which was born in reliable memory of author's personal life experience.
