wprawo.pl 1 year ago

Another breathtaking reading was published by the publishing home in Prawo.pl. After the release of Kornel Makuszynski “Joy and Sad” about the hajdamacko-bolshevik crimes of Ukrainians in Poles, Jacek Międlar published a fresh by the author dedicated to children and youth. Both positions were banned by communist censorship and by mainstream III of the Republic of Poland sentenced to oblivion.

From Jack Meatman's Preface:

It is simply a deranged Polish city.

Kornel Makuszinski "Lviv's Smile" is simply a book banned by the communist authorities, and today, by mainstream III of Poland, condemned to oblivion. This moving story, which came from the pen of 1 of the most prominent Polish writers, has been inaccessible in the publishing marketplace for respective decades. Until today.

“Lviv’s Smile” is simply a communicative written with keen sensitivity and nostalgia about the Polish city, where not monuments are the most important, but its inhabitants. Its reading is simply a kind of journey around the city – the cradle of Polish culture and intelligence. We are accompanied by 14-year-old scout Michał Korecki. Together with him we go to Kresy in search of a mysterious guardian, together with him we cross the streets of Lviv and meet its inhabitants, as the author writes: There is no more radiant city in the Republic, although there are many heroic cities in it. Actually, he's not a teenager, and the Lions are the main character of the novel.

Children, young people and adults will find an adventure, a guide, a grin and tears of emotion, especially a lesson in brotherhood and patriotism. This is simply a communicative by which, dear reader, you will look at the Lions with another eyes. The eyes of a man touched by the past of a city bathed in the blood of the Lviv Eagles – boys and girls for whom the motto always faithful, to you Polish, was not an empty slogan, but a motto for life and death.

In the day of lying the past of Lviv, and especially the attempts to get out of it Polishness, this fresh should find its place in the canon of compulsory reading at the level of teaching in primary schools.
