Writing
Pankowski's Holocaust narratives critically engage with the Polish tradition; he frequently criticizes the pronounced patriarchalism cum Catholicism.[2] The controversy that resulted from his writing seems to stem from his "unconventional approach to sexuality, including same-sex love."[2]
Besides writing original work, Pankowski has published translations of Polish poetry into French.[1]
