This was already the time when writers living in Łódź, which they'd exchanged for Warsaw, had started to come back to Warsaw and as a result, we had a great many writers. Probably the most renowned at that time were Stryjkowski, whom we were very good friends with, and the same with Brandys, they were our friends. We felt very at home among these people.
To był już okres kiedy właściwie pisarze, którzy mieszkali w Łodzi – jak gdyby zamiennie, zamiast w Warszawie – do Warszawy już zaczęli wracać i wskutek tego w Warszawie mieliśmy właściwie gros takich pisarzy, no bo, no chyba najwybitniejsi w tamtym okresie to był... to byli Stryjkowski – z którym też byliśmy bardzo blisko zaprzyjaźnieni – Stryjkowski, Brandys to samo – nasi przyjaciele. Także bardzośmy się jakoś zadomowili w tym środowisku.
Born to a Polish father and a Russian mother, Julia Hartwig (1921-2017) was a Polish poet, essayist, translator and author of children's books. She studied at the University of Warsaw, the Catholic University in Lublin and the Jagiellonian University in Kraków. Czesław Miłosz called her 'the grande dame of Polish poetry'. Julia Hartwig was one of the few poets in Poland who made masterly use of poetic prose. She translated poems by Apollinaire, Rimbaud, Max Jacob, Cendrars and Supervielle, and published monographs on Apollinaire and Gerard de Nerval. She also translated from English, and published a large anthology of American poetry which she co-edited in 1992 with her late husband, the poet Artur Międzyrzecki.
