Fedora’s Woe
by Kornei Chukovskii
translated by Kiyoshi Tanaka
illus. by Valentin Ol'shvang
The latest in Kaiseisha’s series of new translations of classic tales by one of Russia’s most beloved children’s poets. This dynamic translation is rich with onomatopoeia, delightfully evoking the clattering of Fedora’s plates and cutlery and pots and pans making an escape from her dusty, dirty house. A perfect book for reading aloud, just as Chukovskii intended.
