Sometimes ‘leave me alone’ is the deadliest demand of all.
Mr. Wro���ski wanted one thing: to be left alone. He closed his business, paid his dues — or so he thought. But in a country where paperwork never sleeps, one missed VAT form becomes a bureaucratic time bomb.
When the system comes knocking for three hundred zlotys and fifty-three groszy, Wroński locks his door. The government sends a bailiff. He refuses to open. They send police. Then SWAT. Then tanks. And the more they escalate, the more the citizen refuses to comply.
A sharp, darkly funny tale about modern red tape turned deadly — The Citizen Who Froze is a satirical dystopia for anyone who’s ever been buried alive by forms, fees, and the fine print.
Genre: Science Fiction
