A great romp through the life and traditions of the Polish mountain people "Górale" complete with tall tales and the mountain people dialect. Incisive, colorful, and very engaging.
If I were to compare Kuczok to a North American writer here, he is as good writing about the Tatra Mountains and their inhabitants as Annie Proulx is about Wyoming. I am also guessing that their efforts may be equally unlikely to be appreciated by the autochthons. Great and intelligent stuff, even if a bit biting! ( )
