"The Saragossa Manuscript" is the most significant work of the remarkable Polish scholar, diplomat, traveler, and writer Jan Potocki (1761–1815). A young officer rushes back to his unit, but, unable to break the vicious circle, he inevitably finds himself at an inn lost in the Sierra Morena mountains, next to which rise gallows with the bodies of two bandits. The branching plot abounds with geographical leaps and temporal shifts (from Spain we find ourselves on the banks of the Nile, in ancient knights' castles, in Corsica, Sardinia, Malta, Tunisia, Morocco, Ancient Greece, and Judea). At times, the reader feels as if they have found themselves in the labyrinth of tales from "One Thousand and One Nights."
