Coles Rusalka: A Supernatural Czech Fairy Tale at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
Based on Antonin Dvorak's opera Rusalka, which in turn was inspired by traditional Czech fairytales, this novelette tells of the water nymph Rusalka and her love for a human prince. A haunting supernatural love story suitable for readers of all ages. With a look of deepest yearning, Rusalka reached out towards the sky with her tiny, pale hand. 'I want to leave the water and walk in the sun as a mortal!' She uttered this last word with trembling rapture. 'A mortal?' The Vodník was even more astonished. 'Yes, dear father, a mortal!' she cried, rising. 'It was you who told me: they have souls which are immortal, which rise up to heaven when they die!' The Vodník was sore troubled. 'Stay in the waters' embrace. Do not wish for a mortal soul! Mortal souls are full of wickedness!' 'And love!' Rusalka cried ardently, reaching her arms up as though calling it to the host of stars above too. 'By the eternal waters!' exclaimed the Vodník. 'Do you mean to say you love a mortal?'
