Armenian Folk Tales: Volume 1 (English)
This original volume of "Armenian Folk Tales" features thirty-three amazing stories and colorful illustrations that transport us to the deep Armenian fairy tale world. Here, the secret of bringing the Hazarablbul (Nightingale) is revealed, whose song is meant to make the dried royal garden green and bloom again. From the book, we learn how the twins Armen and Zarmen will fight against the old witch and the dervish baba, in which of the seven fortresses the king's daughter will find her enchanted husband, and how twelve-year-old Gohar ended up in a distant forest where the man-eating monster lived. Will Alexan reach the palace of Huri-peri, a place from which no one returns? Who is the mysterious swineherd who appeared in the kingdom? Let's travel with the heroes of the book through various worlds, overcoming many trials together. And three apples will fall from the sky: one for the storyteller, one for the listener, and one for the one who pays attention. The collection includes invaluable fairy tales collected between the 19th and 21st centuries, presented in literary Armenian but preserving their popular charm. Both well-known and forgotten valuable stories from all provinces of Greater Armenia have been selected. These are hidden treasures that speak of the thoughts, humor, and wisdom of our ancestors. Fairy tales that enchant both children and adults, remaining relevant and instructive for the modern reader.
