Abstract

The article interprets the novel Przewóz (2021) written by Andrzej Stasiuk.

The main themes of the novel include myths of collective consciousness, the past and present of rural spaces, the critique of common opinions concerning World War 2 and the Holocaust, as well the theme of a border as influencing human life and identity in both, figurative and substantial aspects.
