About MeI was born on November 29, 1951, so I’m 70 years old. I do not understand the world to come, but this does not preclude participation. I make these pages myself, I write my texts myself. I am a departing representative of linear thinking. I believe in cause and effect relationships, and I’m not too fond of the thought that generations of the thumb are coming, thinking or feeling with pictures. In writing about wine and guilt, I constantly express my neurosis caused by modernity, thus participating. Winey.pl is probably my last project. Here I have collected everything I have written so far, and here I will continue to write. If you think you can help maintain this site, please feel free to donate. Help is always appreciated. |

Why in English, if even my thinking is Polish, sometimes French, or Italian, but never English? And why not? Is there an owner of a language? Is there a criterion, a compulsion to think in a specific language? Constantly trying on, trying out, fighting against the rules of grammar and the dark magma of the mind, that’s it. Proving that the Will counts and that everything – still – is possible.
So, I am not a wine professional, and, in fact, I am not interested in the description of individual bottles or flavours immortalised for eternity, just because they are tiny in their volatility, changing at any moment and depending on just any fart of nature. Instead, I am interested in discovering what constitutes the power of such volatility, because of which disputes and wars take place, books and poems are written, people build careers on them, and all these “exegi monumentum“. I try to understand and grasp the phenomenon to reduce it to dialogue, which is the only way to save me from loneliness and annihilation. So when I write, I sit with You at the table and talk in whatever language I want, which is how I build this site. WINEY.PL |
