Celina Wieniewska claimed The Street of Crocodiles in the Polish city of Drogobych is a street of memories and dreams where recollections of Bruno Schulz´s uncommon boyhood and of the eerie side of his merchant family´s life are evoked in a startling blend of the real and the fantastic. Most memorable - and most chilling - is the portrait of the author´s father, a maddened shopkeeper who imports rare birds´ eggs to hatch in his attic, who believes tailors´ dummies should be treated like people, and whose obsessive fear of cockroaches causes him to resemble one. Bruno Schulz, a Polish Jew killed by the Nazis in 1942, is considered by many to have been the leading Polish writer between the two world wars.
