Book II: The Castle
“Oh!” cried the Count, hands raised, “I knew at once
I liked these castle walls—I’d a sixth sense!
I’d no idea, though, quite how rich they’ve been
In drama, what thrilling incidents they’ve seen!
I’ll seize the castle back—you’ll be installed
As the commander—burgrave, you’ll be called.
Your tale, Gerwazy, captured me outright.
Too bad you didn’t bring me here by night—
I’d sit wrapped in a cloak among the stones
And you’d tell stories rife with blood and groans.
Too bad you’re not a gifted raconteur!
I’ve read quite widely in such literature.
Each English or Scottish lordly castle, or
Each German Graf’s estate, has slayings galore!
There, every wealthy noble family
Has some dark tale of death or treachery
Then vengeance entrusted to an ancestor.
I’ve never heard a Polish case before.

3,5 iš 5.
Pradžia tikrai nebuvo pati įdomiausia, bet kaip skaitytoja po truputį prisitaikai prie rašymo stiliaus ir prie to, kas yra ši knyga ir važiuoji toliau. Kas buvo netikėta, tai knygoje yra nemažai humoro ir satyros. Man patiko, kiek daug buvo rašoma apie Lietuvą, matyt, Mickevičius tikrai mylėjo mūsų žemes. Be to, buvo tikrai įdomu pajausti tuometinį laikotarpį. Apie jį žinau tikrai mažai, nors ir teko mokytis per istorijos pamokas.

Visai linksmų plaučių buvo lenkų šlėktelės.
"Bet štai šlėktelė - jis, nutaręs nesutikti,
Kaip matot, atvirai parodo savo pyktį:
Išvertęs veizolus, jis reiškia savo valia,
O išsižiojęs - rods, prarytų visą salę!"

W połowie przeczytane streszczenie.... Ciekawe jak Mickiewicz musiał się najebać żeby napisać książkę w której połowa tekstu to opis krzaków. Ta jedna gwiazdka to za przepis na bigos, bo to jedyne co mi się przyda do życia po tej książce.

I read this when I was 12 and I did not understand a thing.
Im sure this book is like good ?? And historically significant ?? And the writing is good ??
But it was so boring. It took me like a year to read and it really confused me. The only plot elements I still remember are the main dude met his dad, and there a was a girl who he wanted to marry (but they were in a Romeo and Juliet situation). Maybe its better in polish.
But my mom paid me to read it so it was worth it.
