I really like this russian edition of classic books. Letting famous artists do the covers in YA style was such a simple but clever decision. According to the recent study the number of teenage readers increased, possibly thanks to these covers. I own traditional classics with blank covers but if I ever see one of these in the wild, it’ll probably make me go feral.

Here are some of my favs:

Dracula (art by Renibet)

2.Jane Eyre (art by Ulunii)

3. Little women (art by чаки чаки)

4. The Idiot (the hedgehog-omg-) (art by Xinshi)

5. Pride and Prejudice (art by Cactusute)

6. War and Peace (art by Xinshi)

7. Wuthering Heights (art by Renibet)

8. The Great Gatsby (art by NIKEL)

9. Frankenstein (art by Iren Horrors)

10. Crime and Punishment (art by REDwood)

11. Anna Karenina (art by Ulunii)

12. The Cherry Orchard (art by lewisite)

13. The Master and Margarita (art by Renibet)

The Witchlands series in a nutshell

[snekysonjr]

The waiters

[dark-giver]

I don't have my own personality - I'm half Holden Caulfield and half Bridget Jones

[dark-giver]

And I'm both

And "Come play" by Stray kids is a theme song for the whole series

You know this trend Soldier, Poet, King

For Ninth house

Darlington thought that he was a King but he was a Soldier or a Poet

Alex thought that she's was Soldier but she was a King

And for Dawes - in the beginning Poet but I see her as a Soldier now

"waitiiiiiing, waitiiiiiiing"

"wait for it, wait for it"

honey, whatchu waitin’ for???

[dark-giver]

POV: me when the waiting pattern in the musicals

[dark-giver]

I could write dissertations about the waiting pattern in the musicals

[dark-giver]

No, but Wait for me from the musical Hadestown is written for Alex and Darlington from Ninth house by Leigh Bardugo

When I imagine the moment when Alex and the rest are going to Hell for Darlington I definitely can hear Wait for me playing in the background

I'm coming wait for me (wait)

I hear the walls repeating (wait)

The falling of my feet and

It sounds like drumming (wait)

And I am not alone (wait)

I hear the rocks and stones (wait)

Echoing my song

I'm coming (coming, coming)

There is hope, desperation and yearning. It fits them so well

Also the parallel Darlington and Alex/ Orpheus and Eurydice is so wild for me. In the beginning Darlington is the one to save Alex from her past, from her own Hell, he's Orpheus here, I believe that in Ninth house there was his thought that you shouldn't look back when you leave Hell - even he sees himself as Orpheus. Later the roles switch and Alex leads him out of Hell - she's Orpheus now. They saved each other from Hell (figuratively and literally)

I love this parallel so much. (When I catch you Leigh, when I catch you)
