🪕 Gods, heroes, and magical songs in a land of eternal twilight.

The Kalevala, compiled by Elias Lönnrot from Finnish oral tradition, is one of the great epics of world literature—a sweeping collection of myth, folklore, and poetry that tells the story of creation, heroic quests, rival sorcerers, and elemental forces 🔥🌲.

A foundational text for Finnish identity and a major influence on J.R.R. Tolkien, this epic blends lyrical beauty with cosmic drama, featuring unforgettable characters like Väinämöinen, Lemminkäinen, and the mysterious Sampo. It is a mythological odyssey full of enchantment, transformation, and timeless wisdom.

This edition includes a modern English translation, insightful annotations, and cultural context—ideal for fans of epic poetry, mythology, and classic literature from around the world 📚.

"As essential to Finland as the Iliad is to Greece or the Mahabharata to India." — The New York Review of Books "A rare and poetic vision of mythic Europe." — World Literature Today
