Editor's word:

Stevenson feared that he had dived too deeply into the past when, at the end of the 19th century, he decided to write about the second half of the 18th century. He could see his customer hesitating and pursing his lips. We don't know such fear. This is the perfect adventure novel.

Without the slightest hesitation, we built this complex frame for him from comments and now with some regret we release him from our hands, because the work is finished. After several years of work, handing over the book to readers, we are preparing to monitor its fate.

She is very big and incredibly beautiful. It's about the past that hides behind boring numbers and complicated words.

There, behind the statistics, are living smells and sounds: a strong tar spirit, the sound of waves and the singing of sailors; the taste of adventure, finger-tickling delight mixed with fear. This is the romance of discoverers and reckless robbers, a funny confusion of science and superstition, a naive juxtaposition of sophistication and clumsiness. That special feeling, an inexpressible feature by which, looking at a thing or a picture, one can almost unmistakably determine whether it belongs to a particular time.

It is this elusive essence that we tried so hard to convey in the book: in engravings, maps and diagrams, fonts and vignettes, in the numerous comments themselves.

During the work on the book, both pirates and honest sailors became almost family to us. We really hope that readers will share our sympathy and, forgetting about everything, set off on an exciting voyage along the waves of the past. To find your Treasure Island.

The book is stunningly designed, contains many different secrets, useful information about events and life in the era to which the plot of the work belongs, about the people of that time, as well as about the author.




This is a book that you can not only read, it is interesting to look at and study!!! I want to come back to it and discover something new! My child and his friends come up with games based on this wonderful book.

Currently, I saw this publication on the Internet at a price of about 2000 rubles. Of course, it’s not cheap, but I think the cost is justified, since such a book can be an excellent gift that will attract attention for a very long time!

Thank you for your attention! Good mood to you all!

In September of this year, the Labyrinth Press publishing house released a new book from the Book + Epoch project, an interactive and commentary edition of Treasure Islands. The entire circulation ended by mid-November. And the book arrived in a new gift format just in time. Inside it is exactly the same as the first one, only the cover differs. Set sail on the legendary Hispaniola with Stevenson's heroes! In the margins of the book you will find a story about maritime affairs in 18th-century England and the “golden age” of piracy - drawings, engravings, maps, pages from books of the time, notes and interactive elements recreate the living atmosphere of the era. “I grabbed the jig with my hand, and my foot got caught between the forestay and the brace...” The head of the editorial office of children's literature, Katerina Buntman, tells what treasures are hidden inside the book, why comments are so important, what to look for on page 124, and how a two-hundred-ton three-masted schooner works . Guide to the book We have made a special guide to the book. Here you can leaf through it, look at maps, study the structure of the Hispaniola, learn maritime vocabulary and learn how to tie knots. Readers say Elioza compares two editions of “Treasure Island”: 1. The printing in the gift version is somewhat brighter, the color rendition is different - in the reviewed edition, blue is used in the illustrations, in the gift version - pale purple. I personally liked the second option better. 2. The gift option is more thought out in detail, there are some changes, albeit minor ones. For example, in this book the pasted page turns in one direction, and in the gift edition - in the other, which is more convenient for reading. The impression is that some of the shortcomings of the previous edition were corrected in the gift version. However, no - not shortcomings, but, let’s say, some not fully thought out moments. Read in full Thorn: The interactivity of the publication is beyond praise; at the moment this is actually the best edition of “The Island” since its first publication in Russian, although perhaps not only in Russian. The publication itself is more of a super-detailed commentary on the novel than a novel with a commentary, which in no way spoils the overall reading experience. Over time, this book can become a serious historical source, if not on piracy in the 18th century, but also on book publishing in the 21st. Svetlana Chernysheva: There are a lot of gift editions now. And with rhinestones and sparkles. With fairies, dragons, and whatever. And this is the Book. She has her own character. And it is clear that it was created not only for the sake of piastres, but also with great pleasure. That's why she's special. And I’m glad that I have such a miracle at home. And here you can read all 80 reviews of the book.
