Description

The mysterious, enchanting world of Podlasie… A place of pilgrimages to the famous “mountain of crosses” Grabarka and queues to local “whisperers” (szeptuchy), whose rituals have remained unchanged since pagan times. Sheltered by the Bialowieza Forest, villages lie hidden where inhabitants view the world in their own unique way and commemorate their ancestors by preserving and continuing distinct traditions.

On the pages of this book, mysticism sometimes intertwines with reality, and the infernal world begins to influence the real one. At the same time, the characters of the novel “Whisperers” by Alena Sabuchová are no strangers to universal human problems that are unavoidable in today’s globalized world.
