Lutka I-II

Boleslav Prus

"The Doll" by Bolesław Prusa (real name Aleksander Glowacki) is a novel that explores social and moral problems in Poland during the 19th century.

The main character, Stanisław Wokulski, a rich merchant, falls in love with a beautiful aristocrat, Izabela Łęcka. Their story is complex, imbued with themes of love, class and human psychology.

Wokulski struggles with his own ambitions and disappointments, while trying to find his place in a society that is often unfair and superficial. Through the characters and their relationships, Prus shows the conflicts between tradition and modernity, and social inequality.

The novel is known for its detailed depiction of the characters' psychological states and social circumstances, which gives Prus a strong impression of human nature and moral dilemmas. "The Doll" remains a significant work of Polish literature, reflecting deeply on the challenges of the time in which it was written.
