about this book
From 1840s Ukrainian seminarist Khoma Kupriyenko comes The Evil Prophet, a collection of four gothic tales. These stories transport you into eerie rural Ukraine. Almost nothing is known about Kupriyenko himself – he remains an enigma, his life as mysterious as the dark, unsettling worlds he created.
The boundary between the living and supernatural fades in each narrative. Villagers encounter wicked witches, benevolent rusalky, and cunning demons. Vengeful warlocks return from the dead, adding to the darkness.
Kupriyenko’s simple, direct style echoes the charm of urban legends. His tales offer a glimpse into the folklore of the era. Perfect for fans of gothic fiction and Ukrainian folklore, The Evil Prophet reveals a world where the ordinary meets the extraordinary.
