Summary
Konrad Wallenrod, a Lithuanian taken as a boy by the Teutonic Knights and raised among them, rises to become Grand Master of the Order in order to destroy it from within. Mickiewicz's narrative poem of 1828 is a story of betrayal for the sake of a country and of the love that cannot be saved. This book uses the racial and other slurs of its period as written; the Book Guide explains these words where they occur.
