When we look into Polish tales, fables and legends, we get the impression that our forefathers were passionate about such stories. Centuries of history gave rise to a vast, colourful and densely-populated world of Polish folk beliefs. “The Bestiary”, with beautiful illustrations by Paweł Zych and Witold Vargas, is a modest attempt at portraying the richness and presenting at least part of that world to the readers. Join us on a journey down history lane, full of tales of our ancestors, and myths infused with Slavic magic, which is hard to come by in today’s Polish culture.
