Who are the ‘Russkies’ in Dorota Masłowska’s novel "White and Red"?

Anna Bors Logo ORCID

Abstract

Dorota Masłowska’s novel White and Red is analysed through a post-dependence lens. It examines the phenomenon of abrogation, i.e. refusal of all categories of imposed culture. The protagonists manifest their national identity through an aggressive negation of what is ‘Russkie’, therefore alien. The character of the ‘Russky’- -enemy, is obsessively shaped into various configurations, incarnations and types, which are hard to put into definite categories.
