Krátky popis
In September 1913, Mieczyslaw&,nbsp,Wojnicz, a student
suffering from tuberculosis, arrives at Wilhelm Opitz’s Guesthouse
for Gentlemen, a health resort in what is now western Poland. Every
day, its residents gather in the dining room to imbibe the
hallucinogenic local liqueur, to obsess over money and status, and
to discuss the great issues of the day: Will there
be&,nbsp,war? Monarchy or democracy? Do devils exist? Are women
inherently inferior?&,nbsp,&,nbsp,Meanwhile, disturbing
things are beginning to happen in the guesthouse and its
surroundings. As stories of shocking events in the nearby highlands
reach the men, a sense of dread builds.Someone – or something –
seems to be watching them and&,nbsp,attempting to infiltrate
their world. Little does Mieczyslaw realize, as he attempts to
unravel&,nbsp,both the truths within himself and the mystery of
the sinister forces beyond, that they have&,nbsp,already chosen
their next target. &,nbsp,&,nbsp,A century after the
publication of&,nbsp,The Magic Mountain, Olga Tokarczuk
revisits Thomas Mann territory and lays claim to it, blending
horror story, comedy, folklore and feminist parable with brilliant
storytelling.
