An enchantingly funny read that you can’t tear yourself away from until the very last page. “Eska” is a free fantasy on the theme of Afanasyev’s cherished fairy tales. Animals in the forests, mermaids in rivers, witches in huts, monsters, kings and ordinary people - the characters in this book - are subject to an all-crushing feeling of love. Everyone will be saved and consoled by the cheerful, enterprising Eska, the owner of numerous masculine virtues, and the most important of them - intelligence and a kind soul. Children under 16 years of age are prohibited from reading.
