THE QUEEN AND THE SMOKEHOUSE
POLISH TITLE: BAŁTYK
The Queen and the Smokehouse by Iga Lis is an unconventional snapshot of the seaside. Tourists on the beach, ships in the harbour, and soaring seagulls are merely colourful additions to the story of a strong, female protagonist. Her smokehouse is not just an iconic spot on Łeba’s map but also a symbol of a passing era. Small, local businesses run by bold and offbeat owners and spirited female entrepreneurs are failing, giving way to unified corporate competition.
