Book excerpt: Henryk Sienkiewicz (1846-1916) was a Polish writer and patriot. He is best known abroad for his historical epic Quo Vadis. Without Dogma is the story of a man's inner conflict. He is a pessimistic man who views life instead of entering into it. On one hand he is an emotional and active man while on the other he is self contemplating and critical. "If this were all the book offers us one might well wonder why it was written. But its real interest centres in the moment when the cultivated pessimist "without dogma" discovers that the strongest and most genuine emotion of his life is its love for another man's wife. It is an old theme; certainly two thirds of our modern French novels deal with it; we know exactly how the conventional, respectable British novel would handle it. But here is a treatment, bold, original, and unconventional. The character of the woman stands out in splendid contrast to the man's. Its simplicity, strength, truth, and faith are the antidote for his doubt and weakness. Her very weakness becomes her strength. Her dogmatism saves him."
