Polish Deli 11 3 2012 with Adam Ziemianin

Second week in a row we focus on literature in Polish Deli. This time we talk to Adam Ziemianin, a Cracow based poet best known for his poems sung by Stare Dobre Malzenstwo.

We talk about Adam’s most recent book ‘Wilcze Podniebienie’ and his first attempts to write novels, rather than poetry. We also discuss his career and beginnings and get a chance to listen to ‘Stare Dobre Malzenstwo’, ‘Wolna Grupa Bukowina’ and Marek Galazka singing our guest’s lyrics. And yes, the surname of our guest being the same as the surname of our host is not just a coincidence, we are family!;-)

Hooting Yard: (Two Broken)

There was no sign of the twinkly-eyed ancient, but I saw the quantity surveyor, heading home from work. I accosted him, and told him I had got my lost rag back. I thought he would be pleased, but his eyes filled with tears, and he said:

“What does it profit a man, that he regains his rag but knows not the measure of the quantities he has surveyed?”

And he swept past me, hugging his briefcase to his chest, and trudged away into the salt and sand-strewn streets as night came crashing down.

This episode was recorded on the 9th June 2011. A complete transcript of this episode can be found on Frank Key’s Hooting Yard website. Accompanying Hooting Yard On The Air, the six publications We Were Puny, They Were Vapid, Gravitas, Punctilio, Rectitude & Pippy Bags, Unspeakable Desolation Pouring Down From The Stars, Befuddled By Cormorants , Inpugned By A Peasant And Other Storiesand Porpoises Rescue Dick Van Dyke are available for purchase

Film soundtracks, library and television music with Jonny Trunk. Due to popular demand here it is, our Andy Weatherall special from 2010.
‘What a guy, what records!’ said Jonny, who is rarely impressed by anything, which just goes to show what a momentous occasion it was when the producer, musician, DJ and all-round genius paid us a visit. What more needs to be said?
