'56 Through A Poet's Eyes
I love talking to old people. Chat someone up and within two minutes you’re going to learn something you would have never otherwise found out. That’s how I felt when I spent an afternoon at a retirement home in Budapest, reflecting upon Hungary’s 1956 revolution with a poet.
Bajkai Janosné’s work has not been featured or published anywhere. I will be posting her trilogy of poems (Hungarian and English translation) about the revolution next week and linking it here. For now, enjoy listening.
