Paw królowej

Four stories intertwine in present-day Warsaw: Patrycja Pitz, a journalist 'as ugly as night'; Katarzyna Lep, from Bielsko-Biała, who came to the capital to be a model or a hostess; the pop singer Stanisław Retro; and his slick manager Szymon Rybaczko. They think and act like flattened caricatures, made of the same artificial language they speak, and the real hero is the throwaway trash of advertising and media that rules their thoughts and dreams. The narrator, MC Doris, raps the story in doggerel rhymes and mocks herself too.
