We were very sorry to hear the news that Jenny Robertson died recently.
Jenny, together with her husband Stuart, was a regular at Zielony Balonik meetings. We also read and discussed two of her own books, a biography of Zofia Nałkowska and a book about her travels in Ukraine.
Robert MacMillan has compiled a document with tributes to Jenny written by ZB members, which you can read here –
It includes
- Restless Curiosity: Jenny Robertson on the Zielony Balonik website
- Jenny – my friend!
- Jenny’s books
- Messages from, to and about Jenny
- Jenny – Our Last Wishes and her ongoing presence!
- Flowers from Poland in grateful memory of Jenny
