Life and work
Although Łajming was a prolific writer of Kashubian and Polish short stories, novels, memoirs, and plays, she did not publish her first work until 1958. As a young woman, she did clerical work in various locations including the Kociewian city of Tczew, where, in 1929, she met and married a Tsarist Russian refugee named Nikolai Łajming. They became the parents of a daughter Wera and a son, the artist Włodzimierz Łajming. In 1953 she and her family moved to Słupsk, where her husband's White Russian background would attract less unfavorable notice.
In 2011, Blanche Krbechek and Stanisław Frymark published The Four Leafed Clover, an English translation of her 1985 short story collection Czterolistna Koniczyna.
