Abstract

The paper examines the spatial poetics and the spatial metaphorisation of the novel’s narrative thread that takes place on Margaret Island. In the analysis, I argue that the motif of in- betweenness appears not only in the geographical positioning of the island but also in several further details of the spatial representation, which carries metaphorical meanings in terms of character representation. I scrutinize the motifs of transitory spaces at different stages of Kristóf ’s route on the island: firstly, I look at the meanings of the path, then at the ambiguous spatial elements appearing at the urinal, and finally I examine the metaphorical meanings of the bridge.
