Shadow and Bone: Ravka at War Pop DNA
-
- TV & Film
What do you call a fantasy country that is inspired by 19th century Russia, but is NOT 19th century Russia?
In part 2 of our Shadow and Bone discussion we look at how Leigh Bardugo drew from Russian culture and history to create the world of Ravka, the folklore and fairytales we see woven throughout the Grishaverse, and how these influences helped shape the TV series.
We also explore Alina and Mal’s experiences as children of war through parallels with works with similar character archetypes and themes, such as Attack on Titan, The Hunger Games, and the novel She Who Became the Sun.
