- Abstract
- en_US I am surprised that I had not known of this book earlier. It presents thirty Aesopic fables in prose, each on a left-hand numbered page with a design on the facing right page. The pages are made of very heavy paper, and the binding may be giving way. The best of the designs have, like the front cover's design, a strong sense of line. My favorites include FG (3); Das verliebte Wiesel (8); The Man and His Two Girlfriends (18); Unbekehrbar (25). Gothein's retellings are good. The dying father says to his sons What I have inherited you will find in my vineyard (11). A lucky find on German eBay while I was in Germany.
