Wisława Szymborska (1923–2012) from Krakow won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1996
I'm in complete awe of this remarkable woman, but the section in the Bio that brought me a smile is a vain one: Szymborska lived most of her life in Krakow—my new collection includes a poem that references Krakow. This coincidence lights me up and makes me feel connected to greatness. What are your thoughts on this?
