This article discusses the issue of identity in Krzysztof Varga's works centred on Hungarian themes. The narrative in the prose of the author of Gulasz z Turula [Turul Goulash] combines far--reaching criticism and irony with a nostalgic picture of everyday life and culture. Detailed analyses of Varga's prose show that the writer is a conscious and simultaneously attentive observer of Hungarian reality, who exposes successive components of national myths and symbols, and at the same time reveals the deep sources of his own identity.

Artykuł poświęcony jest problematyce tożsamości w utworach Krzysztofa Vargi o tematyce węgierskiej. Narracja w prozie autora Gulaszu z turula łączy w sobie daleko posunięty krytycyzm i ironię z nostalgicznym obrazem życia codziennego i kultury. Szczegółowe analizy sztuki prozatorskiej Vargi ukazują pisarza jako świadomego i jednocześnie uważnego obserwatora węgierskiej rzeczywistości, który obnaża kolejne elementy składowe narodowych mitów i symboli, a jednocześnie ujawnia głębokie źródła własnej tożsamości.

The aim of this article is to analyze two novels, namely Nagrobek z lastryko(A Terrazzo Tomb) by Krzysztof Varga and Der Komet (The Comet). Despite the differ-ences that occur between the two novels (a dystopian version of the future in the former, and an alternative history in the latter), the predicted end of the world does not take place, while the apocalypse blurs. Equally resistant to change is also the existing societal structure as the catastrophe does not bring a new hierarchy. Both novels use the images of WWII as the pattern to create the literary vision of a total disaster.
