Szukana fraza: [Abstract = "This article deals with the views of Russians and Scandinavians on each other \- as found in short stories by Nataliya Tolstoy \(1943\-2010\) in which she focuses on the differences in mentality, culture, and living standards between the two nations. The literary picture of Scandinavia and Russia shows a confrontation of the two realities\: her protagonists view the North as an 'alien' land, yet a very desirable one \- as a destination for travelers and migrants."]
