In 1942, a young woman boards a train in Arkhangelsk, on the eastern border of Poland. Sixty years later, that journey is reimagined by her granddaughter, Zosia Kuczy ska. As Kuczy ska s poems tell the story of her babcia, her maternal grandmother, coming to England, she confronts some of the big questions of art and history: how do you tell another person s story without exploiting it?
Kuczy ska s poems are both richly narrative and sharply attentive to the complexities of home and culture. They capture human endurance through the redrawing of political maps, from the heat of Easter in Tehran to the powdered eggs and stocking shortages of the London Blitz.

Zosia Kuczy ska was born in Solihull in 1988 to the children of post-WWII displaced persons from the eastern border of Poland. She grew up in Nottingham, where she is currently a Teaching Afliate at the University of Nottingham.
