...In all respects, our most popular poet...(A.S. Pushkin)...His fables are by no means for children. Anyone who calls him a fabulist in the same sense as the fabulists La Fontaine, Dmitriev, Khemnitser and, finally, Izmailov would be grossly mistaken. His parables are a national treasure and constitute the book of wisdom of the people themselves. (N.V. Gogol) In Russian literature there was no more skillful master of allegory than “Grandfather Krylov.” Combining the wisdom of Aesop and the sparkling style of La Fontaine in his style, Ivan Andreevich created an amazing collection of fables. Simple and elegant stories are understandable even to a child, but behind this ease there is always a subtext, a subtle hint that only a few understand. During his life, the writer created 198 fables, which even now, 250 years after the author’s birth, continue to delight with the lightness of style and elegance of allusions. The proposed edition includes all the fables written by Ivan Andreevich Krylov. Each story is decorated with illustrations and provided with a detailed commentary, thanks to which the fables known from childhood are read in a completely different way.
