Summary/Abstract: In her article, Aleksandra Łasińska analyses the manner of portraying the female Other in Julia’s Blackburn book Thin Paths. Journeys in and around an Italian Mountain Village (Życie zaczyna się we Włoszech). Łasińska examines the techniques used by a newsperson to describe the female Other with the goal of illustrating specific methods, used in the text, of establishing relationships with characters. Łasińska argues that Julia Blackburn is at once the protagonist and the female Other in her book.
