Summary/Abstract: The present article is a textual‑perspective interpretation of the novel Sońka by Ignacy Karpowicz, a multiple finalist in the Nike Literary Award competition. The aforementioned literary work evokes three, seemingly mutually exclusive, text types – literarygenres and their aspects, but also various kinds of artistic expression, including drama,dramatic performance or imaging techniques referring to a different medium (film).This renders the final work which transcends the limitations imposed on literature, astonishing with its multidimensionality and polyphony of forms, and requires a holistic analysis that takes into account a wide spectrum of means of expression together with their contexts. The aforementioned artistic strategy has been employed in the most recent work of the writer – Sońka (2015). The aim of the article is therefore to indicate the textual elements which have allowed Karpowicz to achieve the effect of text hybridity, combining distinct artistic worlds in a single work. The observations refer to textology instrumentation, including the research perspective that emphasizes the problem of intertextuality.
