The Lost and Found Department – Immigrant Experience in Poetry
Edited by Maja Trochimczyk
What does it mean to leave one home and settle in another? Did it mean different things at different times? Something different to those born in the West and only hearing the stories of their ancestors?
Four Polish-American poets -- Linda Nemec Foster, Oriana, Lillian Vallee and Maja Trochimczyk -- consider these questions in poems selected and edited for CR by Maja Trochimczyk. Their work was recently presented at the 2010 Annual Meeting of the Polish American Historical Association in San Diego, California.
