The first British writer to win the Nobel Prize in Literature, Rudyard Kipling, is an extraordinary phenomenon, and his works are always an event. His little masterpieces about the creation of the world and the first animals on earth were such an event. Kipling wrote them for his daughter, who died at the age of six. Shocked by the terrible loss, he finished writing them and created a real treasure trove of fairy tales. Rich in poetic images, they enchant even a century later. Before you is a luxurious edition, which is also remarkable for the fact that it includes the full texts of all the fairy tales, including the rarely published "Tale of the Tegumai Taboos".
