'Koschei the Deatless', a figure from Russian folklore, hides a soul in a needle inside an egg, inside a duck, inside a hare, inside a chest - buried beneath tree on a distant island. Illustration by Victor Vasnetsov, 1926.

RUSSIAN FAIRY TALES COLLECTED BY GILLIAN AVERY!!! I love Russian fairy tales. And obviously you can’t review fairy tales, so instead I’m going to mention a couple of things that seem to exist over and over again in Russian fairy tales! Baba Yaga! Bird husbands! Guys named Ivan! Three times nine lands and thirteen kingdoms! All of these and more! But really, if you are a fairy tale fan, I highly suggest you add some Russian ones to your collection. . . . #russainfairytale #babayaga #tsarevichivan #birdhusband #koscheithedeathless #bookstagram #books #book #bookblog #bookblogger #booklover #booknerd #bookstagrammer #readingcommunity #bookcommunity #readersofinstagram #read #bookhoarder #wearecurrentlyreading #bookish #bibliophile #booksbooksbooks #booksworthreading #readmorebooks #mustread https://www.instagram.com/p/CPQoQQmrQ0K/?utm_medium=tumblr

Deathless by Catherynne M. Valente . Birds, Death and Mysticism. Like a bowl of borscht when you wake in the belly of a ravenous and icy winter, Valente’s writing is rich and nourishing. The story, a retelling of Russian fairytales and folklore, is a meal in itself, but the way Valente prepares it, with delicate and detailed delivery of sentences, diced atop its historical backdrop of the Russian Revolution, is where the pleasure truly lies. A fantasy novel like few others. @catvalente #deathless #catherynnemvalente #leningraddiptych #koscheithedeathless #minimonotonebookclub #booksreillustrated #booksivereadin2019 #booksivedrawnin2019 #bookstagram #houlart #houl https://www.instagram.com/p/B5lS4UTBrYz/?igshid=jyihdav4yy37

“For you alone I will be weak.” -Koschei, Deathless.

I’m only at chapter seven but this book is transfixing and has such a richness to it. I just had to draw Koschei when he first comes to claim Marya, the girl in the window.
