Rafał Wojaczek was a Polish poet and writer. As a poète maudit, his life was marked by abortive studies, alcoholism, depression and suicide attempts. He commited suicide by an overdose of various drugs, including diazepam. His short career took place during the turbulent years of modern Poland when the younger generation began to realize that they were trapped in a mendacious political system. His works focused on topics of life and death, obsession on carnality and feminity. He also provoked with presenting himself as an alcoholic and a sponger. He was famous for his frequent riots, scandals and alcoholism.
