The Witch of Konotop
A beloved comic novella and a cornerstone of nineteenth-century Ukrainian prose, steeped in folk belief in witches and demons. Kvitka-Osnovyanenko, often called the father of Ukrainian prose, writes with a folksy wit, and the book is still little known beyond Ukraine.
“A work to be ranked among the best in all of nineteenth-century Ukrainian prose.”
