Tales of the Peoples of the Ural and Volga

Tales of the Peoples of the Ural and Volga

The legends of the ancient Ural are familiar to most of us only through the tales of Pavel Bazhov - but in our book, the genuine folk tales that inspired the author of "The Malachite Box" are gathered for the... first time. This unique collection brings together the tales of ten indigenous peoples of the Ural and Volga - Bashkirs, Tatars, Kalmyks, Udmurts, Mari, Mordvins, Chuvashes, Komi, Khanty, and Nenets.
The book contains sixty captivating but unfamiliar magical tales for most readers, where the most astonishing magical beings dwell - forest spirits and water sprites, evil sorcerers and treacherous witches, while brave heroes and wise beautiful girls stand against them. The edition also includes tales and stories about animals, born from the unique and rich nature of the Ural and Volga.
