Summary/Abstract: Drawing inspiration from Nicholas Brown’s work on the social ontology of art under capitalism and Anna Adamowicz’s book of poetry zmyśl[ ]zmysł (nonsense[ ]sense), the article explores the implications of anti-confession literary strategies and how they negate the work’s commodity status. The author argues that literary confession may be intertwined with the commodity status of a literary work, reflecting broader economic and ideological mechanisms that increasingly commodify literature.
