Summary/Abstract: This article discusses the issue of identity in Krzysztof Varga's works centred on Hungarian themes. The narrative in the prose of the author of Gulasz z Turula [Turul Goulash] combines far--reaching criticism and irony with a nostalgic picture of everyday life and culture. Detailed analyses of Varga's prose show that the writer is a conscious and simultaneously attentive observer of Hungarian reality, who exposes successive components of national myths and symbols, and at the same time reveals the deep sources of his own identity.
