Description

Deathless by Catherynne M. Valente is a retelling of the Russian folktale Marya Morevna and Koschei the Deathless, set in a mysterious version of St. Petersburg during the first half of the 20th century. In this modernized take on the legend, Koschei the Deathless is reimagined as a menacing figure, spanning many of the great developments of Russian history in the twentieth century. The story follows Marya Morevna's transformation from a clever child of the revolution to Koschei's beautiful bride and eventual undoing. A blend of magical history and actual history, love and death, Deathless brings Russian myth back to life in a stunning new incarnation, with elements of secrecy, bureaucracy, and games of lust and power woven throughout.
