No one sees her of course. She doesn't exist unless you count bad dreams. Yet still she flies
In "Finding Baba Yaga: A Short Novel in Verse" by Jane Yolen, the character of Baba Yaga embodies a mysterious and elusive presence, often associated with nightmares. Her existence is primarily felt in the dreams of others rather than in the tangible world, reflecting her role as a mythical figure that haunts and fascinates. Despite being invisible and dismissed as a mere figment of imagination, Baba Yaga continues to soar through the realms of folklore and dreams. This paradox highlights the enduring impact of mythological characters, who may not be seen but leave a significant mark on our psyche and cultural narrative.
