Meet the Authors

This is a Polish Language Event

Join us for a meeting with two Polish authors who recently published the book

HYBRYDOWI POLACY

Andrzej Olas & Andrzej Targowski

Today, the Poles can live in any place they want to. They may stay in Poland, they may leave, and they may return the their country if they chose so. This is why the authors arrived at the optimistic conclusion: the Hybrid Pole has been born -

who can freely rove around the world, and live at any place on Earth. Perhaps for the first time in the last 200 years, Poles became the truly free members of the Western civilization.

In Polish:

Nowatorska koncepcja książki, dwóch autorów, zawiera niebanalne opowiadania Andrzeja Olasa z komentarze Andrzeja Targowskiego. Hybrydowy Polak to taki nasz rodak, który potrafi żyć, działać, odnosić sukcesy i porażki, a także być szczęśliwym w dwóch różnych środowiskach – czy to politycznych, czy obywatelskich – zarówno na obczyźnie, jak i w kraju, nie tracąc przy tym patriotycznej, ekonomicznej i innych więzi z ojczyzną. Tym samym jest on giętkim i sprytnym, a może i mądrym mieszkańcem różnych środowisk; ułatwia mu to przetrwanie, staranie się o lepszy byt. Uzyskuje w ten sposób zadowolenie z życia, którego z różnych względów, najczęściej politycznych i ekonomicznych, nie zapewnia mu życie w jednym środowisku. To obywatel świata, najczęściej z podwójnym obywatelstwem.
