| dc.abstract.en | This article explores the relationship between disability, identity, and productivity in two Polish young adult novels published under state socialism: Jak trudno kochać (How difficult it is to love) and Spotkania (The meetings). How Difficult it is to Love by Jerzy Szczygieł (1976) tells the story of a young blind man who, after living many years “unproductively” with his mother, decides to study and work. Published in 1986, Klementyna Sołonowicz-Olbrychska’s novel The Meetings also focuses on a blind male teenager who leaves his hometown to live with other blind students at a residential school where he plans a future profession. The two works are concerned with the processes of becoming disabled and becoming a part of the blind community. Crucially, it is productivity – the main value in a socialist state – that participates in the formation of disability identity and enables disabled men to form separate communities and workshops for disabled people. |
