Arkadiusz Morawiec, « Escape and return: Post-camp themes in The Tribulations of Father P », Revue de littérature comparée, ID : 10670/1.760877...
This article addresses the key motifs of the concentration camp and post-camp life in the works of Zofia Romanowicz. These motifs are interwoven and indivisible, and are clearly visible in the works whose core themes relate to camps or post-camp trauma, especially in some short stories and in the novel Passage through the Red Sea. In these texts, the characters’ experience of camps has an obvious influence on their life. Furthermore, this experience is imprinted through symbols, allusions, or style in other texts, which seem at first glance to have nothing to do with camps. This is the case in particular in the writer’s last novel, Trybulacje Proboszca P [The Tribulations of Father P].
