Thank you. The New York Times ran the same piece dated September 19, 1985 by Herbert Mitgang. Recently, I read his 200 Italian folktales and enjoyed it immensely.

Did you buy one of each? Faced with a similar display once, I ended up with a book of sea myths & folktales, one about sloops of the Hudson River, and a Joseph Conrad collection of sea stories.

SONG OF THE SEA (2014) - Tomm Moore
"After their mother’s disappearance, Ben and Saoirse are sent to live with Granny in the city. When they try return to their home by the sea, their journey becomes a race against time as they are drawn into a world Ben knows only from his mother’s folktales."

Anywho sorry for blowing up your comments! Haha! If I remember any other folktales I'll tell you. I know of a few forest spirit myths and other critters but I totally forget the story behind them. Wish I had paid more attention as a kid lol

It was either
1. Existential crisis
2. That mitigating Simba-Scar kinda dynamic (also insanely painful).. like harmful power dynamics. Apparantly the story was a mix of African Folktales & also Hamlet.
It was one of two.
Both unbelievably difficult.

i like UXM, but i also basically treat it as entirely unrelated to the ultimate universe for the most part. it's kind of just momoko doing a different x-men reinvention except this time as a shonen manga instead of folktales like demon days was.

vs. an older North Indian style - again, time capsuled a bit too, keep in mind.
Cuz I hate the fact the accents can be judged in a negative light, that's beautiful in a country with 22 languages and infinite breadth/diversity through all of that space with: food, language, folktales/folklore -

In college I studied folklore (world folktales especially), but I started a family while in my early 20s and never pursued it as a career.
When I reentered the workforce, I stumbled into science communication w/ museums.
My main project at work right now is writing a fairytale-themed science show!😁

According to Flemish folktales, witches cursed people by filling their pillows with different kinds of roses. In one of these tales, they attempted to burn the pillow in a field but neither the fabric of the pillow nor the roses would burn.

Before there was a sky, the birds were stars. Before there was a moon, the oceans had no tide. Before we were us, we knew each other.
