All,

BK > I can think only about "Keraban le tetu"...

Here is an amusing question from an online quiz concerning Odessa (offering a school/group May Day 2002 trip to Odessa as prize):

57. The novel of Jules Verne that describes Odessa in one of its chapters is titled:
a) THE ADVENTURES OF TOM SAWYER, b) KERABAN THE HEADSTRONG, c) KING SOLOMON'S MINES

(57. Roman Zhjulja Verna, v odnoj iz glav kotorovo opisyvaecja Odessa, nazyvaecja:
a) "Prikljuchenija Toma Sojera", b) "Uprjamec Keraban", v) "Koli carja Solomona")
