Everyone called him lucky. He’s not so sure.
Greg grew up in Rotten Eggs, a rough Warsaw neighborhood where poverty, secrets, and politics pressed in on every side. When the regime tightened its grip, he found a way out—first to America, then further still—chasing a life that might finally be his own.
Told not as an epic saga but as a mosaic of lived moments—family revelations, missteps, escapes, and ironic turns of “cross-eyed luck”—Lucky Me explores how memory reshapes the past and how identity is pieced together from fragments of story.
