For the first time in Russian-the debut novel of a young English woman Fiona Mosli, who included in the short list of the 2017 Buker Prize. Critics did not skimp on the praise: “A stunning debut ... a certain miracle ...” (Eventing Standard), “Skillfully built modern parables, an outstanding achievement” (Times Literary Supplement) The Guardian newspaper described this novel as “rural noir saturated with myths and legends of the reserved Yorkshire”, and Sunday Times as “The Adventures of Hansel and Gretel in the World of the Cross Father”.
So, welcome to Elmet - the name of the Kingdom of the ancient Britons, located on the territory of modern Yorkshire. There, in the rural wilderness, an unusual family settles in the built house - a brother and sister and their two -meter father, who makes a living with underground fist battles and wants to protect children from the cruelty of modern civilization. But the family idyll is short -lived, and children, especially the oldest Zabiyak Katie, are much more similar to his father than a dreamy younger Daniel, in the center of the new conflict
