Editing Sergiusz Piasecki (section)

=== Living in exile ===
After the war, Piasecki hid from [[Ministry of Public Security (Poland)|the secret police]] for a year inside Poland. In April 1946, he escaped to [[Italy]], where he spotted the Italian translation of his own ''{{lang|pl|Kochanek Wielkiej Niedzwiedzicy}}''. Soon, he got in touch with Polish writers living in exile, including [[Jerzy Giedroyc]]. In 1947, Piasecki moved to England, his name can be found on a resolution of Union of Polish Writers in Exile, which urged all concerned to stop publishing in the Communist-occupied country. He once publicly declared that he would gladly take any job that would result in erasing Communism.

Living abroad, Piasecki did not stop writing. In late 1940s he came to the conclusion that humor was the best weapon to fight the Communists. So, he wrote a satire ''The memoirs of a Red Army officer'', which presents a made-up diary of Mishka Zubov - an officer of the [[Red Army]], who, together with his unit enters Poland on 17 September 1939. Zubov claims in his "diary" that his only purpose is to kill all the bourgeoisie who possess watches and bicycles. Piasecki became fluent in English as an adult. Sergiusz Piasecki died in 1964 in [[London]] at the age of 65. On his tomb, located in [[Hastings Cemetery]], England, it is said that he was born on 1 June 1899.
