Tiger Trappers
Tiger Trappers (, also translated as The Hunters and the Hunted and Tiger Catchers) is an adventure novel with the autobiographical elements from Ivan Bagriany life, written and published in 1944 as "Animal Catchers" in the Evening Hour magazine in Lviv... The draft of the original text remained in Soviet Ukraine and after Bagriany removed to Germany in 1944-1946, he had completely restored the text from memory; this restored version was published in 1946 under the name of the "Tiger Trappers" at the "Prometheus" publishing house in Neu-Ulm.
Separate editions of the novel were published abroad in 1946 (Neu-Ulm) in 1955 (Detroit), 1970 (New York) (abbreviated version), 1991 (Detroit). The novel has also been translated and published in English (1954), Dutch (1959), German (1961), Russian (1992, abbreviated), and Spanish (2006)
American literary critic Walter Gavighurst, in his review entitled "A Touching Story of Political Exile" for the New York Herald Tribune of February 10, 1957, described the novel as:"This eloquent and exciting adventure story is an equally exciting pursuit of political freedom. It is a novel of chivalry and valor, unexpected wild themes in our grubby fiction."
