Summary/Abstract: This article discusses the life, career and work of Aniela Gruszecka. The author attempts to characterize her writing career after 1945, highlighting its successful turns. According to the author the fact that Gruszecka was married to the famous linguist Kazimierz Nitsch may have had an impact on her work. While the criticism addresses mainly the most famous work by this long forgotten writer – Przygoda w nieznanym kraju, the author of the article analyzes two unpublished novels – Wschodnie skrzydło and Geografia serdeczna.
