The Dark Domain
Poland’s strong Catholic faith engendered in its literature a lively awareness of the Devil and a love of the supernatural and the fantastic. These stories are explorations of the extreme in human behaviour, where the bizarre chills the spine, and few authors can match Grabinski’s depiction of seething sexual frenzy. The Dark Domain will introduce to English readers one of Europe’s most important authors of literary fantasy.
