Summary/Abstract: This research paper encompasses a commentary and a transcript of Stefan Szlachtycz interview with Teodor Parnicki (1908–1988) – an outstanding historical novel writer. During this 20-minute-long conversation Stefan Szlachtycz – a director of a movie based on Parnicki’s novel Tylko Beatrycze (1975) – asks the writer about narrative complexities and historical references. Parnicki’s answers are of a great value for literary studies as he presents his train of thought and intellectual horizons; he also unveils some aspects of his literary practices. This interview indicates the reasons why Parnicki’s novels are so complicated, multithreaded and improbable from the historical point of view.
