Summary/Abstract: The aim of the article is to reflect on the ‘double life’ of writers in Poland. Bernard Lahire’s concept is employed to clarify writers’ position in the field of literature and in the system of work and employment. The article is based on qualitative data gathered during the project Pierre Bourdieu and Polish literature after 1989. Interviews with 74 Polish writers present the consequences of writers’ unstable condition for literary production in Poland, main agents influencing their situation, as well as some, however scarce, ideas for systemic strategies of improvement.
