«Domnitza de Snagov» is a novel by Panaït Istrati, published by Folio in paperback (224 pages, in French).
After losing Cosma, the Romanian rebels fighting against Turkish and Greek domination choose Floarea Codrilor, nicknamed Domnitza de Snagov, as their captain. Floarea imposes a new law, brotherhood without personal grudges, and the band accepts it with enthusiasm. It is a picturesque and sometimes far-fetched story of rural Romania.
The paperback edition, published in 1983, is number 1494 in Gallimard's Folio collection; the full title of the volume is «Les récits d'Adrien Zograffi : Domnitza de Snagov».
Suitable for readers of adventure fiction and literary fiction with a historical and rural setting.
Panait Istrati (Romanian: [panaˈit isˈtratʲ]; sometimes rendered as Panaït Istrati; was a Romanian working class writer, who wrote in French and Romanian, nicknamed The Maxim Gorky of the Balkans. Istrati appears to be the first Romanian author explicitly depicting a homosexual character in his work.
