Very different book from Sienkiewicz, but I loved it! I won't delve into the story too much since I don't want to give anything away.Basically, this is a love story told from the viewpoint of a man who lacks "dogma".I think Sienkiewicz uses this word broadly to include religious dogma as well as other beliefs and sacred cows. Unlike Sienkiewicz's more famous novels, narration really rules versus dialogue.Also, several key scenes are only referred to in the diary entries rather than played out for the reader.This approach might become tiresome for some, but I really got hooked. Sienkiewicz handles the diary format masterfully and I was pulled into the story.At many points, I simply could not put it down.Often I felt happy for Leon when he made a step forward, other times he frustrated me so badly I wanted to reach into the book and strangle him.He came alive for me, warts and all, is what I guess I'm saying. The translation is very crisp and reads smoothly.No problem there at all.I enjoyed this just as much as his more famous works, just in a different more cerebral way.There's no battles or kidnappings, but it's a gripping peek inside a man's mind as he faces some rather difficult emotional conflicts. ...

Disappointingly thin On the other hand, it was fun to read about how Sienkiewicz produced his work, and his relationship with his contemporary translators.
A good aide to reading the trilogy |

Read Hania and you'll be hooked on Sienkiewicz forever
Two out of three ain't bad when they're this good. I discovered Sienkiewicz through "With Fire andSword", the first book of the Trilogy, and I have been stalking hisremaining books like a ravenous wolf ever since.This man constructs plotslike Alexander Dumas and ranks with Tolstoy's greatest novels for sheerscope.He is, quite simply, the best writer I have ever been exposed tofrom a literary standpoint as well as from the sheer enjoyment I've gleanedfrom his novels. "The Little Trilogy" is only a peek at whathe's really capable of, but I enjoyed it nonetheless.The first story is acharming example of his ability to create characters that you just fall inlove with.The second story is the longest of the three and, by far, themost fully realized.It's a romance that transforms itself into a story ofalmost gothic tragedy.The characters grab you, and I could not put itdown!The last piece is a military story that meanders a bit and lacks thecharacterization and tight plot structure that are Sienkiewicz's hallmarks. Enjoyable, beautifully written, but probably essential only toSienkiewicz groupies. ... Read more |
