Burnet (1849 - 1924) and J. R. R. Tolkien (1892 - 1973). The description of the miracle and kindness of the human heart occupies the attention of the authors of this collection. The world of wonders has not disappeared in our civilization, it has gone deep into man. The magic of human relationships transforms the world and people who are ready to respond to the call of the unknown. The authors in their fairy tales showed a rare ability to see the mystery of things, behind the gray cover of everyday life - the colorful world of a fairy tale. Who alive can indicate with unshakable certainty which of these worlds is real? Contents: Gilbert Keith Chesterton. Dragon Playing Hide and SeekElinor Farjeon.
