From an 1840s one-hit wonder, Ukrainian seminarist Khoma Kupryenko, comes a collection of four gothic tales that transport you into the eerie rural life of Ukraine. In these stories, the lines between the living and the supernatural blur as villagers encounter evil witches, benevolent rusalky, cunning demons, and vengeful warlocks who return from the dead.
Written in a simple, direct narrative style that echoes the charm of urban legends, these tales offer a fascinating glimpse into the folklore and dark imagination of the era. Perfect for fans of gothic fiction and Ukrainian folklore, Kupryenko's stories are a haunting journey into a world where the ordinary and the extraordinary collide.
