This book contains a collection of Even tales by Dar'ia Mikhailovna Osenina. The aim of this publication is to document and to preserve a particular endangered dialectical variety of the Even language as part of the cultural heritage of that Even group that lives near the western coast of the Ochotsk sea in the Russian Far East.

Alexandra Lavrillier is an anthropologist and associate professor in anthropology at CEARC (Cultures, Environments, Arctic, Representations, Climate) (UVSQ) of the University of Paris-Saclay. Fluent in Evenki, she has conducted around nine years of fieldwork on hunting, reindeer herding, landscape management, representations of the natural environment, adaptations brought by postsocialism, the market economy, climate change, and shamanism among the Evenki, Even, and Yakuts.
