Masłowska was born July 3, 1983 in Wejherowo, and grew up there. She applied for the University of Gdańsk's faculty of psychology and was accepted, but left the studies for Warsaw, where she joined the culture studies at the Warsaw University. She first appeared in the mass-media when her debut book Wojna polsko-ruska pod flagą biało-czerwoną (translated to English as either White and Red in the UK or Snow White and Russian Red in the US) was published. Largely controversial, mostly because of the language seen by many as vulgar, cynical and simple, the book was praised by many intellectuals as innovative and fresh. Among the most active supporters of Masłowska were Marcin Świetlicki and Polityka weekly staff, most notably renowned writer J

Zyta Rudzka
Polska dramatopisarka, pisarka, poetka, publicystka, autorka scenariuszy filmów dokumentalnych, psychoterapeutka wyspecjalizowana w poradnictwie z zakresu seksuologii. Zaczynała jako poetka. W r. 1989 ogłosiła tomik wierszy Ruchoma rzeczywistość, z czasem objawiła się jako prozatorka, wydając – bardzo dobrze przyjętą przez krytykę – powieść Białe klisze (1993). Już wówczas doszedł do głosu charakterystyczny dla Rudzkiej styl narracji powieściowej – silnie zmetaforyzowany, zorganizowany wokół archetypów i symboli, zrodzony zapewne z inspiracji psychoanalitycznych. Pisarka chętnie umieszcza swej opowieści w umownych realiach, lubi wszelkiego typu uniwersalizacje, zwłaszcza te, które mówią o spotkaniu kobiety i mężczyzny, do jakiego dochodzi j

In lyrical prose, Walsh Donnelly explores the complex workings of Matt’s inner life: how he deals with the loss of his twin brother as a child, navigates the carefree days of early manhood and copes with the aftermath of the horseriding accident that would see him incarcerated in the care system for the next thirty years.
