OMISSION - AN ESSAY ON CONTEMPORARY CULTURE

The book "Omission" is a fascinating journey through the world of creators who, for various reasons, decide to give up action, to conscious laziness and wasting talent. The author asks the question about the meaning of such behavior in Western culture, where activity is valued the most and inactivity is seen as a disease. In a world of wars, inequalities and excess, can omission be a chance to save freedom and dignity?

Salinger, Franc Fiszer, the heroines of Elena Ferrante's prose, Roland Barthes and anonymous women for everything, Ralph Ellison, children affected by the resignation syndrome, alternative artists of Kultura Zrzuty appear.
