„Chcę rozmawiać”. Autopsychoterapeutyczne funkcje narracji Justyny Bargielskiej i Anny Starobiniec o utracie perinatalnej
‘I want to talk’. The psychotherapeutic functions of Justyna Bargielska and Anna Starobiniec’s narrations on perinatal loss

Summary/Abstract: The article discusses a unique experience of death such as a perinatal loss described in „Obsoletki” by Justyna Bargielska and „Spójrz na niego” by Anna Starobiniec. The author of the article analyses the ways in which narration aims at assimilating the traumatic experience (in Bargielska’s writing: ‘cataloguing’ the pain of other mothers, ‘a split screen’, adapting external observer’s point of view, dividing the trauma into separate elements, lack of logic; in Starobiniec’s writing: externalization of the loss by the experience of mourning, ‘recreating’ lost relations; in both authors’ creativity: connecting life and death, placing loss in the story of life, conventional endings).
