O ovoj e-knjizi

Nine original and, yes, unlikely fairy-tales, which include stories of the arithmetic fairy, the king who became a charming villa-residence and the dreadful automatic nagging machine. All are classic-Nesbit: charming, novel and not afraid to squeeze in a moral or two — told with proper fairy-tale style.

O autoru

Edith Nesbit, known as E. Nesbit, was a pioneering English author and poet born on August 15, 1858, in Kennington, Surrey. A literary innovator, Nesbit co-founded the Fabian Society, a socialist organization that significantly influenced British politics and culture. Her progressive views often permeated her writing, subtly advocating for social reform and gender equality.Nesbit's most enduring legacy lies in her contributions to children's literature. She revolutionized the genre by blending fantasy with everyday life, creating stories that resonated with young readers while subtly addressing complex social issues. Her works, such as "The Railway Children" and "Five Children and It," remain beloved classics, celebrated for their imaginative plots and richly drawn characters.Nesbit's personal life was as unconventional as her writing. She was known for her bohemian lifestyle, her open marriage with Hubert Bland, and her numerous romantic entanglements, which often scandalized Victorian society. Despite these controversies, her literary circle included luminaries like George Bernard Shaw and H.G. Wells, who admired her wit and creativity.Her influence extends to contemporary writers like J.K. Rowling and C.S. Lewis, who have acknowledged Nesbit's impact on their own work. By infusing her narratives with a sense of wonder and moral inquiry, E. Nesbit not only entertained but also challenged her readers to envision a more just and imaginative world. Her legacy endures, inspiring new generations to explore the magical possibilities of literature.
