Loading... Russian Fairy Tales (1945)by Aleksandr Afanasev (Editor)
None. An awesome collection of seven Russian fairy tales illustrated by Bilibin. All the stories are strange, vivid, and compelling, and include two of my favorite: Ivan, The Grey Wolf, and the Firebird, and Vasilisa the Beautiful. The turn-of-the-century illustrations by Bilibin are gorgeous. Probably my favorite find at the used bookstore here.
