abstract in English:
The following article focuses on the issue of grotesque descriptions of food and cuisine in contemporary iterature. The main objective of the text is not only to present how various writers (M. Bulgakov, W. Gombrowicz, T. Kowicki, St. Mrożek, V. Pelevin, W. Szymborska and St. I. Witkiewicz) use grotesque in their works, but also to analyze such images and their significance in literature. Basing on a reseach material, the conclusion of the article shows, that the usage of grotesque, irony, parody or absurdity in contemporary literary works is not only authors’ way to suprise their readers, but becomes a way of dealing with this heterogeneous, strange, modern world.
