abstract in English:
In this article I would like to present how the contemporary Russian prose writer Jelena Dolgopiat creates alternate worlds. Her works belong to ultra-fiction, a direction in the literature characterized by the fantastic elements being entangled into a thoroughly realistic narrative. Her way to introduce a fantastic "displacement" is usually realized by the main character entering the alternate reality. Therefore the characters of the stories wander between the real and virtual worlds and are sometimes lost in the various branches of human existence. They are looking for their own identity and for the answer to the question about the meaning and purpose of life. The analysis of the selected short stories of the author makes it possible to consider the role of the space and also the causes and ways of penetration of the characters of the presented texts to the other dimension of existence. I will also try to interpret the characteristic vision of the world created by Dolgopiat. The problem of coexistence of the real and alternate worlds, and most of all, its impact on the spiritual condition of the main characters of the stories seems to be very interesting as well.
