Menazerya ludzka (1893) — the Human Menagerie — by Gabriela Zapolska is a cycle of twelve naturalist stories set in Warsaw bourgeois society. Each story is named after an animal, with characters embodying hidden instincts behind their veneer of respectability. Zapolska, Poland's leading feminist writer, strips away the hypocrisy of fin-de-siecle Warsaw to reveal the tightly-caged lives of her characters, particularly its women.
