Abstracts

EN
The first novel by Stasiuk not yet announcing the birth of the sensitive, immune to schemes, still outspoken writer in Europe. Starting from "Dukla" philosophical context for work of Stasiuk increases with every published book. In his vision the Central European existence has been stigmatized by history, marked by loss, limited mentally, ragged with anxiety, ambiguous and stretched between the mystery and the surface of matter. Domestication of alienation associates with the crossing of borders, especially the ethnic borders. The author believes that we lived and apparently we still live as fictitious entities. Being at home means staying in an idealized past. He concludes, “we can never accept ourselves as we are”. Lack of acceptance creates frustration and anxiety. Loneliness, alienation, anxiety is the fundamental attributes of the ontology Andrzej Stasiuk. A writer struggling with the physicality of existence, the concepts of “selfhood” and “being”, trying in his “personal heresy” to solve the secret of existence.
