The Nivkhs, Nanai, Ulchi, Udege and other peoples of the Far East have long lived along the banks of the broad and mighty Amur. And for centuries their old men have been telling tales to children growing up in their camps. About how the boy Indiga overcame seven fears and not only saved his brother, but also gained the heart of a brave man. How the hero Azmun swam on the back of an orca to the Sea Master's house and begged the old man to send fish to the Nivkhs. How the hunter Choril turned into a bear, and his bride went to the Mountain Master himself to search for the truth. Dmitry Nagishkin, a writer from the Far East, carefully studied the oral art of small peoples and, using their stories and language, created an original work of fiction - the book "Amur Tales", a real ethnographic encyclopedia of the region. In 1975, at the International Biennale of Illustration in Bratislava, Gennady Pavlishin received one of the highest awards - the Golden Apple - for "Amur Tales".
