That Is Not Which Is. The Name of That Is Known
Exhibition, 2011
Once I found a dialogue in a publication I was reading in a webpage of one university. I haven’t read a book from which this excerpt is taken, also I don’t know anything about characters and their mutual relationship, not to mention situation itself. Names of these persons couldn’t tell more than just mark their possible belonging to a nationality which in this case definitely is not important. A questioner could be called "A", but a respondent "B".
A: Where are you going?
B: To Pinsk.
A: Liar! You say you are going to Pinsk in order to make me believe you are going to Minsk. But I know you are going to Pinsk. 1
