I enjoyed these stories quite a bit, although there were definitely a few minor issues with the translation, particularly as it concerned incorrect or missing words. Fairy Tales was put out by the Sofia-based A&T Publishing, presumably for the tourist market, but does not appear to have been published outside of the country. I would love to see a western translation/edition, and for these stories to become more widely known in the English-speaking world. As always, given my love of comparative folklore, I enjoyed picking out similarities between the stories Bossilek told and those taken from other traditions. Examples include: The Golden Bird, which can also be found in the Brothers Grimm, or Entertaining, which peoples the Aesopic fable of The Fox and the Stork with Bulgarian folk characters like Kuma Lisa. Apparently The Golden Apple is a favorite tale in Bulgaria, and it appears, in slightly different form, in Bossilek's own The Three Brothers and the Golden Apple. Recommended to anyone interested in folklore in general, or Bulgarian traditional tales specifically.… (altro)
