Malachite Box. Ural Tales

The "Ural Tales" invented by Pavel Bazhov embody the echoes of legends and traditions of many peoples who inhabited the Ural land, the legends of gold diggers, craftsmen, and peasants who lived in this wonderful region. Danila the Master and Silver Hoof, the Great Snake and Firebird, and of course, the Mistress of the Copper Mountain – all these heroes are memorable to us from childhood. And the deposits of Sysert, whose land holds many treasures, from malachite to precious stones, are as familiar to us as our own home.
In our book, we have gathered the best tales of Pavel Bazhov, the most famous stories born from the Urals. The uniqueness of the new edition is the unique illustrative series from the classics of Russian painting, which will allow us not only to read these stories but also to truly immerse ourselves in the everyday life and atmosphere of the Ural region.
