Summary/Abstract: The article is devoted to the participation of Slavic literatures in the debate on postmodernism and world literature in the third millennium. Referring to David Damrosch’s thesis that there has never been a national literature that developed independently of world literature, and to Douwe Foukema and Hans Bertens’ concept of the international character of postmodern literature, the text insists on a close connection between the two concepts. The main focus is on Olga Tokarchuk’s novel Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead, which is defined as global but also postmodern.
