Summary/Abstract: The review discusses Lena Magnone’s book “Maria Konopnicka. Mirrors and Symptoms (Maria Konopnicka. Lustra i symptomy)” devoted to an innovative interpretation of the woman writer’s biography and literary creativity. Magnone convincingly speaks about Konopnicka in terms of internally complicated figure who struggled with number of limitations imposed by the then patriarchal culture. Magnone’s book challenges many interpretational stereotypes that perpetuate around Konopnicka’s writings.
