We invite you to an exceptional author meeting with Sławek Gortych, the creator of a bestselling crime series. The author listens attentively to the whispers of Karkonosze's past, linking contemporary investigations with the region's difficult history.
The Karkonosze landscape in our Guest’s novels is more than a picturesque setting — it becomes a character, a companion and an initiator of events, possessing its own power and memory. With sensitivity and consistency it draws the reader into deep, dark and dangerous secrets.
The mysterious aura shrouding shelters, trails and rocky peaks, combined with attention to historical detail, has made the Karkonosze series a reading phenomenon. The Author himself, receiving the Crime of the Year award at the Bestsellery Empiku gala a few days ago, admitted that it is the “wind of the Spirit of the Mountains” that sets the direction of his writing path.
During the meeting Sławek Gortych will take us behind the scenes of his bestselling series, revealing inspirations deeply rooted in the Karkonosze soil. We will learn the story of the path that led from a literary debut to the top of the sales lists. We hope the Author will also talk about the upcoming fifth volume of the series. Prepare for an evening full of mysteries and opportunities to ask questions.
