Baltaragis's Mill (Lithuanian: Baltaragio malūnas, arba kas dėjosi anuo metu Paudruvės krašte, "Baltaragis's Mill, or What Once Happened in the Paudruvės Land") is a 1945 fantasy novel by Lithuanian writer Kazys Boruta.The story is about a pact of a miller with a devil, which includes a rash promise.
Unlike most stories of the type, there was no happy end to anybody: the miller and most of main characters suffer or die and even the devil is killed by the pagan god Perkunas.
He arranges a fiancé, Pinčiukas (Pinčukas), his closest neighbor, who is in fact the local devil, but Uršulė manages to avoid this.
The composer called the genre "rhythm-opera", a hint to the term "rock opera", bearing in mind Jesus Christ Superstar.
In 2011 Brazdylis recreated his ballet to a minute detail including decorations, to be performed by the students of the National M. K. Čiurlionis School of Art.
