Children’s Literature / STORYTIME

Venture into Romania, through the rolling hills of Maramureș, where an ogre crosses paths with a golden stag, a hungry fairy, or a young girl without hands. But fear not — a magic whip or an enchanted sack may help you overcome the worst ordeals…
These tales from the oral tradition, collected by Estelle Cantala from villagers (Contes roumains du Maramureș [Romanian Tales from Maramureș], Éditions du Jasmin), are brought to life by the voice of Adriana Butoi, actress, performer, and interdisciplinary artist. With humor and imagination, she draws listeners into a vivid, picturesque world where magic hides around every corner.
