A Day in the People's Republic of Poland

Jeden dzień w PRL

Also known as One Day in People's Poland, Ein Tag in der Volksrepublik Polen

Nothing special had happened on that day in the People’s Republic of Poland. The weather forecast predicted moderate clouds. Over 1600 citizens were born and about 600 died. A day like every day… Police reports, control protocols, complaints, letters from the army and to the prison and also to the newspaper or radio programme Fala 56, a poem by Father Twardowski taken off by censors; and all this under the date of 27 September 1962.
