Summary/Abstract: This is a presentation of the prose poetry of Ania Walwicz, one of Australia’s best-known experimental writers and performers but unknown in Poland. Her two pieces: “Australia” and “Poland” are given special attention to show some of the fundamental features of her poems, i.e. loss of identity and transgressive forms of her language. A short recollection of the author’s encounter with the poet in 2012 is included as well.
