Summary/Abstract: The article deals with the issue of immigrants' assimilation into an urban space which is for them at once alien and their own. Stefania Kossowska's collection of essays from London allows just such a look at the so-called Polish London. It also allows an initiation of a discussion of numerous important issues related to the interaction between the city, history, and cultures of its inhabitants.
