Rozmowa Pòlocha z Kaszëbą

A lively exchange opens the work, placing a curious Pole beside a proud Kashubian in a modest 1850 village near Puck.

The dialogue is peppered with humor and local idioms, inviting the ear to catch the rhythm of a language that feels both foreign and familiar.

Through this early encounter the book explores deeper questions of belonging, the transmission of oral tradition, and the ways people define themselves by the stories they tell. Listeners will hear vivid descriptions of Kashubian rituals, ancient trade routes, and the community’s unique relationship with the surrounding landscape. The opening sets a warm, inquisitive tone, promising a rich cultural portrait that unfolds through the simple act of conversation.
