Is narrated by the Anchoress:
Two Polish men.
Both artists. Both “brilliant.”
Both persecuted by Nazis, in their native land. One was a prisoner, one was a slave. When the Nazis left, the Communists came.
One, Roman Polanski, becomes a filmmaker. He encounters a 13 year old girl.
One, Karol Wojtyla, becomes a priest. He too, encounters a 13 year old girl.
…
Two men who suffered under the jackboot of totalitarianism and the disregard for human life and human dignity.
Both media geniuses.
One taught only what he had learned.
The other taught how to transcend it.
Beautifully put.
