Tatarka is a builder and at the same time a destroyer of myths. The mythization of certain stages of life − childhood, personal "primes" in sociohistorical processes (events of 1968), and extraordinary experience (loss of father in WWI and proximity of his own death in WWII) − was essentially about explaining his own position (creation of an "automyth") or "questions and contradictions of value on a self-contained semantic and aesthetic level". The myth and reality of the authorial archai, the building and destroying of the myth of one's own personality as well as that of the socialist regime.
