Polish literature, it must be admitted, has never shown much interest in the Armenians and their problems. One of the few exceptions is the fiction of Stanisława Fleszarowa-Muskat, author of popular novels representative of the postwar middle-of-the-road realism. The Armenian theme is nowhere as prominent as in the autobiographical short story Czarny Warkocz [The Black Plait] (1983): the protagonist is her Armenian mother, Wanda nee Isakiewicz. Earlier, in the trilogy Tak trzymać! [Keep it going!], published in the 1970s, she modelled one of the fictional characters on her mother. However, she did not try to get in touch with the Armenian community in Poland until rather late in life. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
