Mr Distinctive

The latest book for readers of all ages by Nobel Prize–winning author Olga Tokarczuk, with stunning illustrations by Joanna Concejo.

Mr Distinctive has a face everyone remembers. He’s admired, photographed, and endlessly shares selfies online. But one day, his reflection begins to blur—and with every new photo, he loses a bit more of himself.

Can he recover his once-flawless face? Will a chance encounter in a gloomy suburb lead him back to what made him unique?

In this thought-provoking tale, Tokarczuk and Concejo explore a world obsessed with appearances, self-image, and the cult of “me.”
