Tales and Parables
Сказки и притчи

A collection of short tales and parables on legendary and moral themes, in the vein of the stories already gathered in the 1914 Collected Works. Roerich practised this genre of poetic prose before emigration, alongside his paintings of Slavic legends; some of these texts reappeared in later anthologies.
