A collection of short stories by Henryk Sienkiewicz, a Polish writer, novelist, journalist, and Nobel Prize laureate. "Life and Death: A Hindu Legend" is an allegory of how Brahma separated the world between the Plain of Life and the Plain of Death, leaving its governance to Vishnu and Siva. "Is He the Dearest One?" deals with the motherly love for a fallen son. "A Legend of the Sea" is the story of the voyage of the ship Purple and its crew, who, because of pride, lost the very thing they treasured. "The Cranes" is an account of the travels of Sienkiewicz and his dilemma of homesickness that led him to compose "Charcoal Sketches." "The Judgement of Peter and Paul on Olympus" is an allegory presenting St. Peter and St. Paul's judgment on Greek gods living in Olympus.
