„Wszystko jest powtórzone na jednym ostrzu noża”. O doświadczeniu utraty w Przebudzeniach Tadeusza Nowaka
“Everything is Repeated on a Single Blade of Knife.” About the Experience of Loss in Tadeusz Nowak’s Przebudzenia

Summary/Abstract: Te article is devoted to the prose debut of Tadeusz Nowak; however, the volume Przebudzenia [Awakenings] is interpreted in the context of his later writings. Te suggestions concerning the interpretation of the title word point at some notions crucial for understanding Nowak’s prose writing: the feeling of yearning for what has been lost and suffering incurred by the awareness of lack. Te shape of a circle plays a significant role in these deliberations, since repetition seems to be the antidote for fading away and dying. Writing– here also understood as a form of repetition – becomes a necessary and continually undertaken attempt to heal the wound caused by the experience of loss.
