Ivan Krylov: My Animals Speak for Me

New

As a boy, he began to rhyme lines. He entered history as the author of fables. His creative legacy includes works of many genres, but the great fable writer left no autobiographical lines, although he lived a long life. However,... the reason is well-circulated: he did not like to talk about himself. His first name, patronymic, and last name were simple, yet everyone preferred and continues to prefer to call him simply "Grandfather Krylov." There is no other Russian writer about whom so many anecdotes and fables circulate. This is usually explained by saying that Ivan Andreevich was known to be quite an oddball.
A biography of a great unique person, a big oddball, a remarkable fable writer whose life was full of mysteries.
