Summary/Abstract: The primary aim of this paper is to show and test, through the analysis of The White Hotelby D.M. Tomas, the explanatory power of the theory of modal restrictions and trans-world identity by Ljubomir Doležel, while the secondary aim is to highlight one possible understanding of the abovementioned novel by applying this methodological instrument. The author concludes that, on one hand, Doležel's theory of possible worlds is suitable to encircle the versatility of a literary work with its methodological instrument; on the other hand,it is insufficient toresolve all the assigned problems. The analysis includes the conceptual apparatus of possible worlds semantics as well as classical narratology
