Three scenes of the opera - The Treatise on Dummies, July Night, and Loneliness - contain plots and text fragments selected from six different stories by Bruno Schulz in which Jakub, a mercer in a little country town, appears to his son as an ''inspired heresiarch''. ''Demiurgos'', signs Jakub in the monologue of Act I, ''has not a monopoly of creation. Creation is a priviledge of all spirits. (...) Too long have we lived terrorized by the unequalled perfection of Demiurgos. The perfection of his creation has paralysed our own creativity too long. We do not want to compete with him. It is not our ambition to be equal to him. We want to be creators in our own inferior sphere''
