A Tale of One Józef
Overview
A Tale of One Józef is a sequence of poems tracing the life of Józef Drukier, a working-class father in communist Poland. Drawn from long conversations with his son, Piotr, these poems reimagine Józef's world - shaped by duty, ideology, endurance, and love - as it shifted beneath him. In these pages, we follow Józef through the armed forces and family kitchens, trade union meetings and bus routes, Sunday Masses and silences that say more than words.
Józef's story speaks to the larger, often unsung legacy of men like him: shaped by their times, yet quietly shaping the lives around them.
