JARUZELSKI & Co

The great poet, philosopher, plumber and polymath Stefan Jaruzelski (nephew of the Commie dictator) publishes his occasional pieces from The Crazy Oik (see www.crazyoik.co.uk). He has recruited some equally eccentric collaborators - Ron Horsefield who memorably recounts his meeting with Empson and Larkin in the station toilets at Sheffield, and Ralph Bundlethorpe who investigates the problem of identity. Stefan is persona non grata in Poland and his works are banned although fans have set up a clandestine distribution network in Krakow.
