Puck of Pook's Hill (Skazki Staroy Anglii)

Rudyard Kipling was a celebrated writer, poet, and short story writer, the first Englishman to receive the Nobel Prize in Literature. Perhaps few have had such a successful literary career: Kipling's works were acclaimed by critics, earned record-breaking royalties, and four collected editions were published during the author's lifetime—a truly unique achievement. 'Puck of the Fairy Hills' and 'The Fairy Gift,' which form this collection, along with 'The Jungle Books,' are Kipling's most famous works. During his lifetime, they were translated into twenty-seven languages! The captivating stories of the mischievous elf Puck weave together folklore, fairy tales, mythology, and history, creating the inimitable atmosphere of good old England.
