A collection of texts on Jozef Mackiewicz's alleged collaboration with the German occupier during World War II.

From the introduction: Jozef Mackiewicz, in his novel works and in his articles, insults our recent past and our struggle for independence. His writing speeches are provocative in nature. It should be stated that Jozef Mackiewicz, during the Second World War, did not take part in the struggle waged by our nation in defense of freedom and independence. During the Soviet occupation of Vilnius, he was absent from the independence underground work, and after the Germans occupied Vilnius in June 1941, he wrote for the "gaga" press, i.e., he collaborated with Nazi propaganda. It came to pass that the authorities of the Polish Underground issued a death sentence on Jozef Mackiewicz for collaboration with the German occupier.
