Summary/Abstract: The article investigates the multiple voices of award-winning Scottish writer and poet Jackie Kay, the culture specificity of these voices, and the complexities involved in their translation. Special attention is drawn to the extent to which Kay is still a relatively unknown literary figure in Poland and why there appears to be resistance in including her in Poland’s culture repertoire.
