Powieść В советском союзе не было аддерола Olgi Breininger z perspektywy autofikcji
The novel В советском союзе не было аддерола by Olga Breininger from the perspective of autofiction

Summary/Abstract: The aim of the article is to analyze Olga Breininger’s novel as a field for constructing the author’s identity. The category of autofiction, regarded as a tool of self-understanding and self-creation, has been chosen as the methodological foundation. The analysis of the literary text is embedded in the context of the author’s non-literary activity, understood here not as biographical information, but as another (next to the fiction works) platform of self-creation. The interpretation of the novel focuses on the protagonist who experiences an identity crisis caused by chronic perfectionism and a sense of uprooting. Attention is given, among others, to the main character’s memory operations, which play a key role in understanding her existential chaos. Creating the story as a generation’s voice is considered as an important device, aimed at overcoming the feeling of loneliness.
