Romantic fiction

In his books, the Russian writer Alexandr Grin created a world of cheerful and courageous people, a beautiful land full of fragrant bushes and sunshine. A land not found on any map, named Grinlandia. There, fantasy intertwines with reality, and the bizarre events will make your head spin, as if after a glass of wine. This book features what is probably Grin's most famous novella, Scarlet Sails, a fairytale story about a simple girl named Assol and a young captain, Arthur Grey. It is a story in which the dream of love and beauty triumphs over a world of malice and hatred. The book also introduces you to other works by the author, the novellas The Green Lamp and Around the World.
