Synopsis
A quiet, gripping historical drama set in 19th‑century Poland, Beneath the White House follows a family bound by duty, tradition, and quiet loyalties.
At a riverside estate near the Vistula, a prosperous landholding and its circle navigate everyday life, harvest, and social expectations while the shadow of political change lingers beyond the farm.
Through the lives of Felicyan Starowolski and his relatives, readers glimpse a world of family ties, village routines, and delicate manners. The arrival of a Countess and the rhythms of Easter feasts illuminate a society where status and daily labor intertwine, and where women in particular balance hospitality, moral code, and personal longing.What you’ll experience

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book, part historical memoir and part family history, offers a revealing snapshot into life in 19th-century Russian-occupied Poland. The author, a military man who has spent years in training and abroad, reflects on the stark differences between army life and life on the family farm in Stara-Wola, which he left at 18 to fight for his country. The book delves into the hardships faced by Poles living under Russian rule, their sacrifices and determination, and the strong bonds of family. While the main story follows the author's adjustment to life back home and the changes that have taken place during his absence, the book's detailed descriptions of rural Polish life and the shadow of oppression that lingers over the land add historical and cultural depth. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
