Carace-idealist and other fairy tales. Saltykov-Shchedrin M.

In the diverse work of the Russian writer M.E. Saltykova-Shchedrin is a special place for fairy tales-a sample stiff, caustic and at the same time thin satire. In the richest gallery of images, the writer reproduced the anatomy of modern society, affected all social layers, touched many complex problems in various fields of life. This is not only a magnificent artistic monument of the past era, but also an appeal to topical social and political problems.
