It is the series of conversations carried out by its author with Stanisław Dróżdż in November and December 2006.
In the extended interview, Stanisław Dróżdż speaks about his childhood which was difficult because of his illness, his family home, his youth as well as about his struggle with illness, his weaknesses and doubts. He recalls the beginnings of the environment of Polish concrete poets initiated by him in Wrocław, and discusses the most important issues of his own concrete poetry developed by him for 45 years.
