This event is an author's meeting with Małgorzata Czyńska, focusing on her book "Pisz do mnie na Łódź! Życie kulturalne i towarzyskie w tymczasowej stolicy" (Write to me in Łódź! Cultural and social life in the temporary capital). The book explores the intense artistic and social life in Łódź during the years 1945-1948. Following World War II, Łódź became the temporary center of Polish cultural life as destroyed Warsaw began its reconstruction. The city attracted writers, filmmakers, theater professionals, musicians, visual artists, and scientists, offering them not only refuge but also opportunities to work and rebuild the nation's cultural landscape. The meeting will delve into this significant period, highlighted by the Hotel Grand on Piotrkowska Street as a symbol of hope and recovery. The book is richly illustrated with photographic material and the discussion will be led by Grzegorz Wysocki, a journalist from "Gazeta Wyborcza".
