"Sikamura" is a collection that does not offer clear answers, but rather encourages the reader to interpret and reflect, making it demanding but significant in the context of contemporary literature.
The story of Gogol is a story of tragic talent, mysticism and madness, of a manuscript that burned, of a nose and an overcoat, of an auditor and dead souls.
The anthology, edited and translated by Zdravko Malić, a leading Croatian Polish scholar and founder of the Polish Language Department at the Faculty of Fine Arts in Zagreb, represents a key selection of Polish short fiction from the 20th century.
The book contains about twenty stories connected into one whole by the main character (the writer Oskar). It is, therefore, a kind of novel that, through intimate confessions, actually talks about the loneliness of the modern intellectual.
The collection consists of ten stories. The stories range from just a few pages of text to those with around fifty.
