Summary/Abstract: 24 kochanków Perdity Loost (24 Perdita Loost’s Lovers) by Jan Brzękowski is a novel in which avant-garde experiments mix with problems which are typical of modern-times literature. Parodistically referring to various popular literary conventions and film motives, the writer created a form built analogically to a painting collage, similar to the one worked out by French surrealists (André Breton, Louis Aragon, Philippe Soupault). He used it to formulate an assumption that ‘love’ in its conventional meaning is, in fact, a bunch of complex sensations and emotions.
