This is an automatically translated description

The talent of Bolesław Prusa (1847-1912) to vividly reflect the spirit of his time in his works is fully manifested in his short fiction - novels and short stories. Insightful and instructive, sometimes funny, sometimes tragic, they invite the reader to the world of childhood, where goodness and joy always reign, but the author does not forget about the adults who live alongside the young heroes, about their tragedies and regrets. As a subtle psychologist, Prus is able to see life from the inside, not from the outside, to analyse the smallest details, and therefore he manages to masterfully reveal all the facets of his contemporary society.

The works by B. Prus presented in this collection are translated into Ukrainian for the first time.
