The first part of Ignacy Karpowicz’s debut novel, Uncool, might seem to suggest that we have here another young prose-writer seeking to describe the various miseries of the provincial life, as the author brings us young and frustrated residents of Białystok who have difficulty making ends meet. But the second part of the novel clearly leans toward unhinged, no-holds-barred grotesque, in which the writer opens th -

Dorota Masłowska
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.

Łukasz Orbitowski
Pisze przede wszystkim współczesne horrory, nierzadko dziejące się na ulicach i osiedlach Krakowa. Opisy szarej codzienności sąsiadują w nich z magicznymi, często przerażającymi przygodami. Dostrzeżony także poza obszarem fantastyki, czego dowodem jest związanie się z Wydawnictwem Literackim.

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

Ernst Theodor Wilhelm Hoffmann, better known by his pen name E. T. A. Hoffmann (Ernst Theodor Amadeus Hoffmann), was a German Romantic author of fantasy and horror, a jurist, composer, music critic, draftsman and caricaturist.

The ballet Coppélia is based on two other stories that Hoffmann wrote, while Schumann's Kreisleriana is based on Hoffmann's character Johannes Kreisler.

She debuted in the beginning of the 90s as one of the most distinct figures of Polish literary life. In her short stories and essays, she promoted the new literature in democratic Poland as open to voices previously excluded from cultural discourse. Her novel Absolutna Amnezja published in 1995 critiques the communist past from the point of view socially maladjusted young women. The book mixes satirical representation of authoritarian schools and dysfunctional families with the historical events from the pre-Solidarity period, and discusses education as breaking the spirits of girls through an elaborate application of double standards.
