Summary/Abstract: The article demonstrates the results of a comparative analysis of literary reportages by Artem Czech and Paweł Pieniążek. It aims to show how the images of the war in Eastern Ukraine differ when the conflict is reported from the perspective of a Ukrainian native and a foreigner. The research material consists of the following literary reports: “Punkt zerowy” [“Point Zero”] by Artem Czech and “Wojna, która nas zmieniła” [“War That Changed Us”] by Paweł Pieniążek (both published in 2017). The aim of the study is to show how Ukrainian reports of the events of the war in Eastern Ukraine differ from that of a foreign war reporter from Poland. At times, Ukrainian reporting is much more emotionally charged than the one authored by a foreigner.
