>With fire and Sword-1135 pages
>The Deluge-1861 pages

who has time for this much fiction from the same story? If I want to read something by Sienkiewicz should I just read Fire in the Steppe? seems like a reasonably sized self contained story.

Obviously if you want something short just read his Quo Vadis and the excellent movie adaptation of it

Oh no its the trilogy polish shill again. I thought they reprimended you harder that you fucked off for longer time. You ahouldnt read anything by sienkiewicz besides quo vadis and w pustyni i w puszczy. Your massive pseud and you should be damned for eternal hell. Fuck off with slavshit books or ill call janny.

I am. Sienkiewicz is brilliant writer but i read him in russian translation.
You probably can't enjoy it in non slavic languages though. It has too much slav soul and coloring.

By the way, Faraon was Stalin's favourite book of all time.

This, The Doll is the best Polish 19th Century lit. Although some parts, especially the Rzecki chapters feel bloated, and Napoleon worship is getting annoying. Still, it's a great book

You stupid nigger. Doll represents cuck mentality and should be avoided at all cost. Prus himself was rather based but the Doll is garbage.
