Summary/Abstract: The article discusses the ways of conceptualizing the represented world, which is described in the title novel by Olga Tokarczuk, distinguishes possible types of conceptual metaphors and their types. The most general observation concerns the vagueness of the boundaries between them and their creation of a coherent conceptual system. A more detailed description consists in ascertainment of the image schemas that are the basis for the conceptualization of the categories that make up the represented world.
