Ajutor

Step into the enchanting world of Tales From The Samodivi, where the mystical and magical come alive in a collection of captivating Balkan folk tales and legends!

The Balkans, a crossroads of culture and history for over 2, 000 years, have given birth to some of the most fascinating folklore in the world. In this collection, you’ll explore the rich traditions of Slavic mythology, where mythical beings and legendary heroes roam ancient forests, battle dark forces, and uncover timeless truths about life and love.

At the heart of these tales are the Samodivi-mysterious forest spirits who take the form of stunningly beautiful women. Guarding nature’s creatures, dancing in moonlit springs, and enchanting young men with their kaval (wooden flute) melodies, the Samodivi are both alluring and dangerous. But beware: if a man steals a Samodiva’s magical veil, she’s bound to him as his wife, though she’ll spend every waking moment plotting her escape to reclaim her freedom.

These stories, drawn from classic works such as Serbian Folk-lore and Andrew Lang’s Fairy Books, take readers on a thrilling journey through the rich tapestry of Balkan legend. Each tale reveals a unique blend of magic, romance, and mystery, shaped by centuries of tradition and the diverse landscapes of the region.

With Tales From The Samodivi, you’ll uncover ancient secrets, meet unforgettable characters, and be transported to a world where every shadow holds a story. Whether you’re a lover of folklore or simply seeking an escape into a world of adventure and wonder, this collection promises to captivate and inspire.

Join us in this voyage of discovery through the legendary heart of the Balkans-where every tale is a gateway to another realm!
