Anhelli (1838) by Juliusz Slowacki is a poetic prose work set among Polish exiles in Siberia. The angel-like hero Anhelli wanders a frozen landscape, encountering fellow exiles in their suffering. Suffused with messianic imagery and Biblical echoes, it prophesies that Polish national suffering will eventually lead to redemption. One of the most unusual and visionary works of Polish Romanticism.
