A young artist-athlete's attempt to flee Poland for America in 1954. The light novel adaptation of the comic book adaptation of the English translation of the semi-autobiographical Polish novel SKYLINER.
My dad wrote Skyliner in Polish in the mid-2000s and the semi-autobiographical historical novel was published in Poland in 2009. I completed an English translation in 2011 and in 2015 we adapted it into an 11-issue comic book run that we later collected into a graphic novel format.
I posted the English translation publicly for the first time earlier this year for a couple months on Honeyfeed, dividing the text into 107 chapters and breaking up the long paragraphs of the original but otherwise keeping everything the same. I pulled that when I started releasing this light novel adaptation.
I am working on it as I go along, the same way my father and I did when we adapted the English translation into a comic book series, starting it before the adaptation was entirely done. I hope you enjoy it!
