Folk Russian Tales

Before you are the best Russian animal tales and magical tales from the famous collection of A. N. Afanasev, recorded in their original, pristine form, from the mouths of folk storytellers. In many ways, these tales differ from those we... have been accustomed to since childhood. In them, you will find not only the unique features of the language, the spirit and life of old Russia, but also new characters, and even unfamiliar resolutions to well-known plots. Afanasev's tales have been reissued multiple times, but only in our book are unique illustrations from several classic editions gathered together for the first time, including not only works by great artists such as I. Bilibin, V. Vasnetsov, B. Zvorikin, but also rare works by E. Lissner, S. Solomko, A. Neruchev, and other old masters of the Russian book school.
