Čoban nadmudrio carevu kćer: Hrvatska narodna pripovijetka
The story was originally published in the collection of Croatian folk stories from Vojvodina "To the sky", which was collected and edited by Balint Vujkov, under the title Wise Shepherd, and narrated by Miško Zelić Kaćmar.
After the flood, a fisherman and his wife live on an old ship. The sea has swallowed the land, the cities have sunk, and the fish have almost disappeared, so the fisherman and the woman are barely surviving.
The novel represents Tolstoy's adaptation of Pinocchio by Carlo Collodi; he got the idea for the novel as a child, when he was read only the first part of the book, so he invented the rest himself.
Veselin Masleša, 1985.
