Originating from the rich Armenian storytelling tradition, the Foxbook has been known as the notable Armenian fable collection, earning its name from the recurring central character in many of these tales.

Published by Dudukhouse, this unique anthology breathes new life into over 200 medieval Armenian fables, many of which are introduced to the English-speaking world for the first time. The collection features works from revered authors such as Mkhitar Gosh and Vardan Aygektsi, along with a bonus selection of contemporary fables penned by Sar Kamler, further enriching Armenia's storytelling legacy.
