The paper reviews Jerzy Madejski’s collection of critical essays Poetyka ekstremalna oraz inne noty o liryce i krytyce współczesnej, an anthology comprising forty-four reviews of poetic books, and eighteen reviews of literary studies books previously published by Madejski in various literary magazines, such as “Nowe Książki”, “Kwartalnik Artystyczny” and “Odra”. Madejski reads the analyzed texts carefully, philologically, and then puts forward his own hypotheses and proposes his interpretations. As a result, Poetyka ekstremalna is a vademecum which can be used by reviewers as a guidebook for writing critical-literary texts.
