The author presents a collection of drafts Inne historie by Paweł Huelle as a kind of
a “personal author’s map”: a collection of places and surnames that are important for
this writer for various reasons. Although the main point in the esseist search of the
author of Memesis is Gdańsk, the issues he deals with frequently go beyond strictly
a motive of a “little homeland” (among others an Irish motive). Besides, stories collected
in Inne historie allow for discovering the secrets of Huelle’s writing workshop (autothematism).
A mosaic nature of drafts situates Inne historie on the borderline of writing of
the author of Weiser Dawidek, but also allows for showing broader contexts in order to
read the most important works of the author
