Let Us Follow Him
by Henryk Sienkiewicz
This story of Henryk Sienkiewicz is interesting because, so to speak, it can be considered the seed of Quo Vadis, one of the most remarkable novels and which also won a wide audience in Europe and America. It is the story of Cain Septimus Cunius, a Roman patrician, rich, wonderful, loving luxury; Aveya, who traveled to Alexandria, which was full of Roman life, and where she loved and married a beautiful woman, is the daughter of the wise Timon. Kunia's intense and encompassing passion for his wife revolutionizes her life and nature. Autea falls ill and they go to Jerusalem in the hope of recovery and arrive on the eve of the crucifixion. This is a strange, beautiful little story full of suggestions, pictures and possibilities, with a peculiar charm that Sienkiewicz has only the secret of his own generation.
