During her recent visit to the University of California, Berkeley, in California, Ada Janiszewska explored a remarkable chapter of Miłosz’s life: his years at the university, where he taught and continued his literary and intellectual journey. Her visit included a look at his former office, offering a glimpse into the place where the celebrated poet once worked.
Ada also spoke with Professor John Connelly of UC Berkeley’s Department of History, who shared insights into Miłosz’s life, his time at the university and personal stories that bring the poet’s legacy closer to us.
