Polish speculative fiction occupies a peripheral position with regard to its English-language counterpart, which becomes visible in the context of the polysystem theory and the genre’s founding texts. On the example of Otchłań by Robert J. Szmidt, a novel from Dmitry Glukhovsky’s Metro 2033 universe, it is possible to show the features of a potential translation, focused on the strategy of foreignization, which would determine the peripheral character of the target text. These features are, among others: neologisms, word plays or references to Polish reality.
