15/27 Tribute to Ginczanka

I have just discovered the poetry of Ginczanka (Zuzanna Gincburg) a young Jewish immigrant from Russia who fell in love with the melody, grammar, metaphors of Polish language . Her talent, passion receptivity of expressing feelings, impressed me a lot. I was particularly moved by “The Rebellion of the Fifteens” - full of passion, stretching with lust for love, breaking social conventions (all well known to me because of my 16 years old granddaughter). She almost survived the dark years of Holocaust, killed by Nazis at the age of 27, some weeks before the liberation of Krakow.
