About this audiobook
Discover the haunting and often melancholy beauty of tales from Lithuania, Africa, and the Mediterranean. This volume distinguishes itself by including stories that do not always have a happy ending, reflecting the harsh realities of the cultures they spring from. The magic here is ancient and sometimes dangerous, with narratives that explore the consequences of greed, envy, and pride. It is a fascinating study of the darker, more complex side of global folklore.
