Kultura publishes a conversation between Jerzy Giedroyc and Stefan Kisielewski about the October 1956 events in Poland. An increasing number of Poland-based authors are published by the Institute. Maisons-Laffitte is visited by a group of young people associated with the Warsaw STS Club (among them Jarosław Abramov-Newerly, Andrzej Drawicz, Andrzej Jarecki, and Agnieszka Osiecka) who arrive at Avenue de Poissy with a typescript of Marek Hłasko’s Cmentarze (The Graveyard). Jerzy Giedroyc’s think-piece “To Readers in Poland”, in which he evaluates the political situation in Poland after the authorities withdraw from the October Thaw, is printed on Bible paper and smuggled into Poland.
