Abstract

This article presents the life story of a Pole with Jewish ancestry who came to the United States in the 1980s as a political refugee after the imposition of martial law and returned to Poland in the 1990s after the collapse of Communism. I explore the meaning of Jewishness in his social self, constructed and narrated within the changing sociopolitical and geographic contexts of Wrocław, New York, Mississippi, and Warsaw.
