Zuzanna Ginczanka

Zuzanna Ginczanka (1917–1945) was a Polish-Jewish poet murdered during the Holocaust. Admired during the interwar period for its dazzling language, her work languished in obscurity under communism, only to be rediscovered at the turn of the twenty-first century. Her work explores themes of women’s rights, female sexuality, human and animal nature, and the sensual qualities of language.
