Though it consists of entries arranged in alphabetical order, Rymkiewicz's encyclopedia reads like an essay. This book is full of knowledge about Slowacki, but it is also, and perhaps above all, a collection of Rymkiewicz's personal views about Juliusz Slowacki's oeuvre. "This never-ending story can be read in fragments or in order, for pleasure or for edification; you can start reading at the beginning or at the end, but also in the middle - so just as you want and like to read," says Jaroslaw Marek Rymkiewicz.
