As Agam, the young protagonist, listens with a mixture of awe and trepidation, the villagers' narratives come alive, transporting him into a world where legends blend with the whispers of the night breeze. Agam's journey leads him to unravel the enigmatic birth of the Mibu, a divine class with foresight and insight, paralleling the oracles of ancient mythologies. But it's not just the supernatural that binds this community. The moonlit nights hold a profound significance, a time when villagers find solace under starlit skies while legends and tales echo through the air. Even amid their daily toils, the marshy ponds and swampy bogs are sources of wonder and fear, where the lines between reality and the Malevolent Uyyu's shadowy presence blur. "Beliefs Across the River" is a spellbinding tapestry woven with echoes of Greek and English literature, where age-old tales of Baak, Dhanguli, and beyond speak to the heart of human curiosity. As Agam's world oscillates between belief and scepticism, reality and enchantment, readers are invited to explore a universe where folklore dances with the unseen and where the river current carries with it the echo of legends and the whispers of the Mishing people's souls.

Trieste Publishing has a massive catalogue of classic book titles. Our aim is to provide readers with the highest quality reproductions of fiction and non-fiction literature that has stood the test of time. The many thousands of books in our collection have been sourced from libraries and private collections around the world.The titles that Trieste Publishing has chosen to be part of the collection have been scanned to simulate the original. Our readers see the books the same way that their first readers did decades or a hundred or more years ago. Books from that period are often spoiled by imperfections that did not exist in the original. Imperfections could be in the form of blurred text, photographs, or missing pages. It is highly unlikely that this would occur with one of our books. Our extensive quality control ensures that the readers of Trieste Publishing's books will be delighted with their purchase. Our staff has thoroughly reviewed every page of all the books in the collection, repairing, or if necessary, rejecting titles that are not of the highest quality. This process ensures that the reader of one of Trieste Publishing's titles receives a volume that faithfully reproduces the original, and to the maximum degree possible, gives them the experience of owning the original work.We pride ourselves on not only creating a pathway to an extensive reservoir of books of the finest quality, but also providing value to every one of our readers. Generally, Trieste books are purchased singly - on demand, however they may also be purchased in bulk. Readers interested in bulk purchases are invited to contact us directly to enquire about our tailored bulk rates.

Excerpt from English Fairy and Other Folk Tales The following collection of English Folk Tales docs not pretend to be more than a presentation, in a more or less literary form, of a few of the traditional stories, formerly no doubt rife in this country, but now fast disappearing under the stress of modem life. The reader will of course miss many of those with which he has always been familiar - many for which the term Fairy Tale has always seemed to him to have a special connotation. One of the reasons for this is that several of such tales are not of true native growth, but were introduced from France by means of the chap-book translations to which I shall have occasion to refer presently. Another reason is to be found in the complaint recently made by a distinguished writer that a good version of his old favourite, Jack the Giant-Killer, was hard to procure. I have indeed ventured to include a version of this particular tale, though it can by no means be denied that time and circumstances have dealt hardly with it, as with many like it.

Excerpt from Folk Tales Every Child Should Know: A Selection of the Popular Traditions of Various Nations for Young People When the traveller looks at Rome for the first time he does not realize that there have been several cities on the same piece of ground, and that the churches and palaces and other great buildings he sees to-day rest on an earlier and invisible city buried in dust beneath the foundations of the Rome of the Twentieth Century. In like manner, and because all visible things on the surface of the earth have grown out of older things which have ceased to be, the world of habits, the ideas, customs, fancies, and arts, in which we live is a survival of a younger world which long ago disappeared. When we speak of Friday as an unlucky day, or touch wood after saying that we have had good luck for a long time, or take the trouble to look at the new moon over the right Shoulder, or avoid crossing the street while a funeral is passing, we are recall ing old superstitions or beliefs, a vanished world in which our remote forefathers lived.
