Swimming in the Dark
First love in 1980s Poland, where the relationship and the politics turn out to be one choice.
In early-1980s Poland, university student Ludwik meets Janusz at a summer agricultural camp, and their affair runs directly into a state that permits neither the relationship nor the silence around it. Jedrowski writes first love and political compromise as the same choice.
