Stefan Żeromski, who lived and wrote in late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Poland, created superb novels and yet is little known in the English-speaking world. His limited reputation can partly be attributed to the unsettled times in which he wrote.
Called "the conscience of Polish literature," Stefan Żeromski was born in central Poland near the town of Kielce, the son of an impoverished nobleman. His native region at the foot of the Holy Cross mountain chain had been a battleground during the 1863 insurrection, and this theme was to receive a new treatment under Żeromski’s pen.
