Nasza Księgarnia
Publishers, 2009
The novel received honorable mention in the Book of the Year 2009 competition organized by the Polish Section of the International Board on Books for Young People (IBBY).
"Incompleteness" is a very good novella, in the best tradition of Central European prose. It is an epitaph for the European modernism, a voice from another world, full of respect for the art of storytelling and for beautiful language.

Den, který všechno změnil
(The Day That Changed Everything)
“(...) I rushed to where Josef K. was already putting his head obediently on the stone. The Moon hovered over the scene. In its cold light, one of the two thugs was testing the sharpness of a butcher knife. Yes, that was the least I could do. I would not run away this time. Maybe it wasn’t too late. Maybe the shame won’t outlive me.”
