A review by lauli
A Selection of Stories, Lyrics, and Epic Poems by Arra M. Garab, Dorian Rottenberg, Hovhannes Tumanyan, Brian Bean

4.0

Hovannes Tumanyan's Folk Tales, compiled in the Romantic manner of the Grimms or Perrault from Armenian oral tradition (that is historical Armenia, much vaster than the present-day republic) are filled with humour, supernatural elements and life lessons. An entertaining way of accessing this literature which is so rich but so little known for most readers.
