New research on Polish‑language communities in Israel has a peculiar critical literary resonance in Poland, among others due to the complex, double, Polish‑Jewish identity of the authors. Thus, the fact that Polish literary criticism does not pay much attention to Elżbieta Kossewska’s book, Ona jeszcze mówi po polsku, ale śmieje się po hebrajsku…, is puzzling. This review points to this interesting study of the so far untackled issue of Polish‑language party press in Israel, which gives the recipient considerable cognitive satisfaction. Elżbieta Kossewska’s project included conducting research in several dozen libraries in Poland and abroad. The book resulting from it shows the richness of Polish‑language press in the Land of Israel. The thesis of the study concerns the dependence of particular press titles on political parties. Despite its monographic character, the publication is really a story about Jewish people moving from Poland to Israel, composed from scattered pages of Polish‑language Israeli newspapers. The reviewed piece should occupy an important position among the accomplishments of press studies in Poland.
