Summary/Abstract: The author questions queer interpretations of Gombrowicz’s short story “The Events onthe Banbury,” arguing that they overinterpret the piece by disregarding Gombrowicz’sfundamental self-commentary and overlooking crucial issues of the piece, along withGombrowicz’s broader literary output. The author completely alters the interpretation ofGombrowicz’s story by indicating that it polemicizes with Henryk Sienkiewicz’s Portraitof America: Letters.
