Szymborska centennial kicks off
Wisława Szymborska, a Polish poet who was awarded the Nobel Prize for literature in 1996, would have been celebrating her 100th birthday in 2023.
The poet died in 2012, but her legacy continues thanks to the Szymborska Foundation. The organisation is run by the poet’s former secretary, Michał Rusinek, himself a writer.
In this episode of The Debrief, Michał Rusinek is in the studio with host John Beauchamp to go through what’s in store for the Szymborska Year – as it is officially known.
