Eve, Literary return Schilling proves that after a number of more or less suggestive of publications dealing with the problems of gay women in contemporary Polish society, she and most of all she is really strong player character, which associated with the current lesbian literature. After a very successful "fool" the author returns to the short forms of prose. "Everyday" is a collection of narratives as good as "The Mirror", and maybe even better. Thirteen seemingly simple stories from the formal, where Schilling will give a voice to women rather than gay, what women are lost, frustrated, lonely and often still strongly rooted in the traumatic past. "Everyday" is a spectacular book, is divided into smaller images of the panorama of women's fate - so different from each other, and in fact so similar to each other. The trick is to write about everyday life in an unusual way, and though I was somehow not yet convinced of what shows in his prose Ewa Schilling, after reading her recent stories I can confidently say: Ladies and gentlemen, this is something! What the author writes? "Maybe about where you are, who you are and that they do not know why". words of the first stories seem to accurately indicate the overall message of this book. protagonists 'everyday life' are usually in which a critical point. Emily must come to terms with the fact that her mother suffering from cancer, leaving the world. Julia is experiencing a crisis of faith, which always gave her the confidence and stability. Wanda after 22 years due to the writer, with whom she was only shadow, begins to discover that life belongs to her and for myself that I never properly did not care. For disabled Alina Christmas Eve in the company of a friend nowopoznanej will be the beginning of another life changing perspective on what is, and what you and someone received in the past. Schilling mouths of his characters ask questions about where they are at this moment and what is the moment of transition, they experience it. And who they really are and who you were before?
heterosexual relationships with women, "Everyday Life" is an attempt to escape from their own desires and give a false sense of security. binding to the men, choose a simpler, easier way. Bozena, Veronica, has said Wanda ... each of them in this connection escapes from itself. From everything that constitutes their femininity. This womanhood, whose strength lies in homosexual desire. But who are women relationships with other women? Here, we draw attention to the story of Irena and Karina. The answer is not unequivocal. Similarly, you can look at the ambiguous act of love with another woman, who lost in the life of Justine is an attempt to expiation and simultaneously an attempt to know itself. Here we come to the third part of the question, trying to draw, as is this book. Much is not known, and certainly do not know why the heroine behave as they do. What makes bitter mathematician Teresa arrives in the room of his pupil, with whom smoke herb and talks about passions of film? Why does the writer Agatha, to finish his book, at all costs must meet with a woman is more important for her than writing? Is it only sexual harassment by her father and turbulent past, led the Margaret emigrated to the Netherlands? Ewa Schilling is not the answer, but asks questions. Among them are lost heroine, their sexuality, sensitivity and delicacy.
Ewa Schilling Thirteen stories are stories describing the prose of life, but extracting the hidden poetic prose. One might deny these stories yet so firmly rooted in real life, that little in their room for ambiguity, symbolism. Nothing could be further from the truth. Schilling has a "mirror" to prove that the power of persuasive writing are excluded and insecure about their identity (including sexual) women are not hiding in the experimenter's form but in content. Content of the "everyday life" is - as the note on the cover - bread lesbians. However, it may taste differently thirteen times and each time become unique.
