Sanatorium Zaglada - Max Czornyj

A haunting Polish-language novel set in the brutal reality of World War II.
A story of illusion, survival, and the collapse of a world built on forgotten ideals.

Lew Wilcek, raised in isolation and convinced that the elegance of the belle époque still exists, is suddenly forced into a reality he cannot comprehend — a world ruled by war, fear, and cruelty.

About the Book

Arrested by the Nazis and placed in a psychiatric institution, Lew begins to realize that everything he believed in — his identity, his past, and his understanding of the world — may have been an illusion.

As he navigates a world of manipulation, deception, and hidden agendas, he becomes entangled in dangerous relationships and moral dilemmas. At the same time, a terrifying reality unfolds as the Nazi regime plans the extermination of those deemed unworthy of life.
