Inhaltsangabe

Crimson Sails is a classic adventure tale of love and hope in the beauty of one's dreams. Written by Russia's Alexander Grin in 1923, this short fantasy novel introduces readers to Soll, a hopeful young girl who has been ostracized in her village. When a mysterious storyteller informs her of a massive ship with crimson sails that will come for her, Soll becomes even more isolated from her neighbors, who view her as feeble-minded. In a surprising twist, her prophecy comes true in a most unexpected way. Crimson Sails has delighted Russian readers for decades, but has enjoyed limited exposure outside of Russia. The book features parallel texts in English and Russian. Those familiar with both languages will enjoy reading this great work in both languages. The book is aimed to assist students, scholars and others wishing to improve their language skills in Russian or English.
