The return of ‘folklore fashion’ and the renewed fascination with folk art can be seen at present in various spaces and culture-based texts. Following in the footsteps of Western countries that are now ‘reclaiming’ old beliefs, customs, and rites, Poland and other Slavic countries are reliving their ‘peasant mania’. These trends have also been reflected in contemporary fantasy literature; over the past twenty years, many novels have referred to the life and rituals of village dwellers (often from the Podlasie region). Folk-based beliefs, which are part of everyday life and culture, become the starting point for the construction of a surprising and ingenious storyline. This article compares the ‘folk’ novels that are linked through the type of main character – whisperers, witches, faith healers – who in some way symbolise the rural, the folk, the commoner-related.
