Romanian Myths. From Vircolacs and Pharaohs to Muma Pădurii and Dracula

 Natalia Osoianu's book is about Romanian myths and their most unexpected intersections with Slavic and European mythology. There are stories of folklore and fairytale characters: devils, vampires, sea maidens and so on - from Baba Yaga (Muma Pădurii) to Dracula.

The Romanians have lived at the crossroads of cultures for centuries and their mutual influence has shaped a bizarre picture of Romanian mythology. A writer and translator Natalia Osoianu is going to present this intricate beauty and identity; she opens the reader a door to an unexplored world.
