Fairy-tale narratives from the North
The fairy tales from the land of the far North are rich and exuberant. They reflect the harsh landscape and the lives and character of the people who had to assert themselves within it. Sweden is a classic ground for sagas, fairy tales, and songs. They are often eerie and somber, but joyous things were also sung and told. Defining figures are trolls, giants, devils, or gnomes, protective house spirits. In addition to animal and magic tales, everyday stories and farces belong to the rich repertoire of this fairy-tale world, which one roams through in this beautifully illustrated selection.
