Orzeszkowa, Eliza: The Argonauts. V1. 11 Mar 2010
Eliza Orzeszkowa (1841-1910), Polish novelist, was born near Hrodna (now Belarus), to the noble Pawłowski family. In her sixteenth year she married Piotr Orzeszko, a Polish nobleman, who was exiled to Siberia after the January 1863 Uprising.
Excerpt Aloysius Darvid, the owner of this mansion, had not inherited his millions; he had won them with his own iron labor, and he toiled continually to increase them. His industry, inventiveness, and energy were inexhaustible. To him business seemed to be what water is to a fish: the element which gives delight and freedom.
