Summary/Abstract: In the article, the author analyzes the communication between body and text in the latestnovel published by the Israeli writer Amir Gutfreund, Agadat Bruno ve Adela, in whichthe body and the text stand in its center, thus related to the texts of Schulz’s short storiesfrom the Sanatorium under the Sign of the Hourglass. The paper refers to the essayisticconsiderations of Daniela Hodrová who approaches the text as a fabric and a tissue, anopen work with germinal places and an ability to attract other texts. The author graduallyexamines the context of a murder series committed in contemporary Israel, whose victimsare linked with one another not only by the rare killing weapon originating from thetime of the British Palestinian Mandate, but also by graffiti from The Sanatorium underthe Sign of the Hourglass and old secrets. The writing of text is defined as weaving anddeep dreaming, while the behind-text, inter-text, and over-text are examined to weavethe thread of the story into a meaningful pattern of fabric.
