Finally now when I have finished the book "Buddenbrooks" by Thomas Mann i have started reading this week a nice book of a complete Slovenian folk tales. The tales seem to be very interesting, well I would say, that every book is interesting than the "Buddenbrooks"; I think that even reading the whole detailed Bible would be more interesting than this book. Now, since I begun the new book of the Slovenian folk tales whose collector was Frenc Presern, a famous Slovenian poet and collector of folk tales and fables. In this book there is 189 tales collected. What I have noticed is that many of the tales are similar to some of the Serbian tales, there are certain correlations between the folk tales in the whole Balkans. For example, the tale of "the violin Princess" is the same in Hungary and in Slovenia. This was one of my favorite tales. it is about an wealthy and powerful King who has 3 daughter, two older sisters and they have a younger sister. The youngest daughter was the favorite daughter to the king. The older sisters were very jealous, so they turned the little girl into a wooden violin which they threw away into the woods. They told the king that she got lost and that they couldn't find her. Meanwhile an old beggar finds the violin and starts playing it beautiful magic sounds were coming out from her. He took the to the town and played it to the towns people. The towns people said that he should take that violin to the king he may get lot of money for it, which he did. He took it to the king When the two evil sisters saw the violin they were frightened and devastated. They took the violin and started playing it, however the sounds were awful so they stopped. The king grabbed the violin and started playing it. A white light blasted through the castle corridor and the little princess was now there she got back from being a violin. She told the king what her sisters done to her, subsequently, the sisters were thrown into jail. And the beggar became very rich which he was rewarded by the king. And every one lived happily ever after. The stories are short and light which after a long and heavy book come good.
