Do you want to know what fairy tales the great Swedish writers Astrid Lindgren and Selma Lagerlöf grew up with and what folk stories inspired them? It’s a paradox, but the amazing Fairytale Universe from which Carlson, Nils and Pippi Longstocking grew up is still practically unknown to our readers. To close this gap, we present to you a collection of Swedish folk tales, carefully extracted from various books and periodicals of the 1902th century, imbued with a national spirit and distinguished by an inimitable richness and purity of language. Almost all the fairy tales included in this book have been published for the FIRST TIME since XNUMX. And the magnificent classical translations by E. Chistyakova-Ver and S. Kublitska-Piottukh make this edition even more valuable and in demand. In bewitching stories, where there are certainly fantastic creatures - trolls, gnomes, elves - one can feel the spirit of the great Scandinavia, in their calm, epic narration lies a quiet majesty that subjugates people of all ages and interests, and in entertaining stories, like in a mirror, the character of the people is reflected , its culture and customs.
