Mama Shamana Spills Salt

This book is available in Russian and French and has not been translated into English yet.

“Mama Shamana has nine sisters. She saw the first one even before birth, the second one – only once and only halfway. The third one plays the jaw harp better than she ties shoelaces, the fourth and fifth are so alike that sometimes they switch lives without even noticing it. The sixth one doesn’t remember her name but never forgets a single face. The seventh one follows the eighth like the moon follows the sun, but always remains in the shadow. The eighth one distorts stories and gives good for evil, so that rye fields grow with swans, and barns are filled with pearls. The ninth one has not yet been born, but already breathes down the neck of the first one.
She saw the first one even before birth.” 

The third book of Mama Shamana trilogy is about mermaids and silver keys,  dreams and unruly hair, about a son who has grown up overnight and lighthouses that shine only for their captains. The book is decorated with delicate watercolor illustrations of Ukrainian artist Anastasia Telegina.
The book will be an excellent gift for a woman of any age.
