PB - Zielona Góra: Oficyna Wydawnicza Uniwersytetu Zielonogórskiego N2 - The theme of this article is "Unless", a crime story by Boris Akunin, which takes place in 2004, andwhose protagonists, Misha, is a Russian living in the USA. The investigation of his suicide, whichhe commits in New York's Greenwood Cemetery, leads to a mysterious femme fatale. The analysisof Akunin?s essays collected in Cemetery stories, makes it possible to think that the femme fatale isthe notorious Lola Montez, who lived in the 19th century. N2 - The philological investigation (in with the authors of the article usurp the names of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson) shows that Misha committed three mistakes which led to his suicide (loneliness, numbers and the state "in-between"). The originality of the story?s narration makes it possible to read "Unless" as a camouflaged philosophical tale. Akunin (akunin ? in Japanese a "scoundrel") plays the parts of two scoundrels - one warns us not to follow Misha, who was engulfed by greed, the other, however, asks a perverse (or perverted) question: "How much are you ready to pay to get a taste of true love??".
