Its main purpose is to track down the Derridean ‘spectres’ that make their appearance as a result of the traumatic relationship between the main character and a rural world in the grip of an environmental degradation and the extinction of wildlife. The article proposes a psychoanalytic reading of the novel based on Ashlee Cunsolo’s notion of ‘ecological grief’, triggered by inexorable loss that occurs before the eyes of the protagonists. The experience of terminal illness tests and erodes the ‘I’, but also opens it to the outside world and, in effect, reveals a precious complex of relations between the human and non-human worlds.}, type={Artykuł}, title={Illness and the environment: An ecospectrological reading of Małgorzata Lebda’s novel Łakome}, URL={http://so.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/132371/2023-05-RL-06.pdf}, doi={10.24425/rl.2023.148313}, keywords={Contemporary Polish literature, climate crisis, trauma, death, ecohauntology, Derridean ‘spectres’, ecological grief, Ashlee Cunsolo, Małgorzata Lebda (b. 1985)}, }
