Summary/Abstract: The article is devoted to Russian translation of the book Inni ludzie by Dorota Masłowska that has been done for the theatrical adaptation. Particular focus is put on the genre specificity of the text and its specific linguistic, narrative and cultural indicators, some of which have not been reflected in the Russian version. Text orientation towards the different recipient results in the transition of certain threads affecting interpretation of the text. An image of the Pole depicted in the translated theatrical adaptation is softened in comparison with the original text and issues related to the collective Polish awareness sound more universal.
