Abstract

Radek Knapp (1964-) is a Polish-Austrian writer who addresses the issue of immigrants living in Vienna in his works. In his books, he tries to answer the question about the identity of the newcomers and the interaction they enter into with the local population. In the last novel from 2020, Knapp presents Vienna as seen through the eyes of a Polish immigrant. It is an environment that is not easy to enter. However, it is possible. The way to this leads through functioning in Viennese everyday life, primarily through professional activity and knowledge of the German language, including the Viennese dialect.
