Lalka with delivery to Ireland

Lalka in the Kolorowa Klasyka series is the most beautiful colour edition of this novel available! The book features splendid, vivid illustrations, and its large print makes for quick, easy reading. Printed on coated paper, this edition is highly durable and attractive.

Stanisław Wokulski is one of the most fascinating characters in Polish literature, and Lalka itself is a novel loved by generation after generation. Little wonder: regarded as Bolesław Prus's finest novel, it portrays a real world, with problems and dilemmas that remain relevant today.

The Warsaw described in the pages of the novel is still alive: walking tours are organised following in the footsteps of its characters, and on Krakowskie Przedmieście, the townhouse at number 4-6 bears a plaque: “On this spot stood the house in which Stanisław Wokulski lived in 1878-79, a character brought to life by Bolesław Prus in the novel Lalka, a participant in the Uprising of 1863, a former Siberian exile, a former merchant and citizen of the capital city of Warsaw, a philanthropist and scholar born in 1832”.

We present an exceptional edition of this great Polish novel: durably bound, with colour illustrations that wonderfully capture the spirit of the era, on paper that is easy on the eyes.

Lalka has never looked more beautiful.

Enjoy!
