My interview for TribLive

It's not easy to talk about growing up in the post-communist country, but I do believe that it's important to tell the truth. But there are different ways to share the truth with the world. My way is Force Field.

“Force Field. The place where you are safe. You are loved. You are free!”
K. U. Grudowski, Force Field

“I just tremble with anxiety when you’re not around, but when you finally arrive, nothing else matters.” I kept the tone of my voice light. I was confused that he was cuddling me with affection instead of answering my angry outburst with a fight. Why did he want to hear all that so badly if he knew that soon it would just be another burden for us? But he wasn’t bothered by any of those things and just went on to kiss me. I felt the taste of the rain and freedom on his warm lips. No one had ever kissed me before.
I should have pushed him away. I should have left. And maybe even the lightning should have struck us. But none of those things happened. The world was all the same just a second ago. Only I was different—I felt like dancing.”
K. U. Grudowski, Force Field

“I tried to create my own Force Field—something that would embody the beauty itself,
a place that could give strength even in the toughest of times.”
K. U. Grudowski, Force Field

“I tried to create my own Force Field—something that would embody the beauty itself,
a place that could give strength even in the toughest of times.”
K. U. Grudowski, Force Field

“I believe that each person has a favorite place, a tree, a mountain, or a beach which they want to come back to, even if the return can only take place in the boundaries of their imagination.”
Sana Szewczyk, Under a Ginkgo Tree and Other Stories

“The voice was full of satisfaction with the things we had achieved, sadness for the life we had left behind, and hope for the unknown future. I could feel my heart beating strong and fast under my right hand. I wondered if anyone else could hear the beating of my heart. It felt like the integrated pulse of many hearts beating steadily together in this room at that very moment.”
Sana Szewczyk, Under a Ginkgo Tree and Other Stories

“I want to be able to share the place I come from, just like I would share a piece of fresh Polish bread.”
Sana Szewczyk, Under a Ginkgo Tree and Other Stories

“On the way out through the steel door, as I held Makenzie in my arms, I wondered if she could use her "Dorothy shoes" to take us safely home, if I just held on to her tightly. Then I asked myself: Where is home, really? I hoped that now I would know.”
Sana Szewczyk, Under a Ginkgo Tree and Other Stories
