This article presents a range and ways of existence of an autobiographic space in short stories of Gustaw Herling-Grudziński. The starting point of this article is the thesis about the connection between places and landscapes being described an author’s mythical space of his childhood - the region of Kielce. As it turns out, components of that space can be found in many descriptions of the places that are connected with the following stages of Grudziński’s life, especially with forty-fiveyears he had lived in Italy.
