Summary/Abstract: “Elusive – this is the word I associate with Mariusz. Other words too: grimacing, escape, hidden. The room in which we became acquainted was rather dark. He sat with his back to the window, with a lowered face concealed in the shadow. Expressionless – if this word might be applied to describe a face so full of animation. Let us say that it was immobile for a single moment. I entered, looked at an empty armchair facing the window and a low table, on which a clock and a box of tissues stood; I felt the presence of books on shelves running across the walls. I was unfamiliar with the procedure. I was the patient and he was the therapist, who did not intend to disclose it to me. Finally, I sat down and mumbled something. He did not respond. As I found out later, this was the Freudian approach. At that time I did not know what he was doing, and had no idea who he was”.
