The poem by Henry Longfello "Song of Gayavat" is a classic of American literature, it is based on plots of Indian legends. Gayavata is the son of the beautiful goddess of the night sky and the treacherous Indian god. From childhood, he learned to understand the nature, the language of animals and birds. He alone is able to great feats for the glory of his people: victories over the monsters, conquering rivers and pacification of the Great Wind. Magic moccasins, magic mittens and love of the most beautiful Indian girl make Gayavat the greatest warrior of all tribes. The romance of the endless prairies and rocky canyons, the melody of Indian legends conquered the great writer I. Bunin. His translation of the poem, awarded the Pushkin Prize in 1903, is considered unsurpassed so far. The subtle and expressive illustrations of X. Fisher are imbued with attention and love for the Indian peoples and their amazing culture.
