Abstract
en_US This sixteen-page pamphlet reproduces two of the eight stories from Pierre Perret: Les Fables de Jean de la Fontaine d'Apres les Fables Géométriques de Fantome from the same publisher in the same year. As I mentioned there, the texts here, transformed from those of La Fontaine, accent the funny and poetic. Here TH turns into a skiing race. The second fable here is a delightful transformation of La Fontaine's fable in which the cock directs the visit-hungry fox to the doorkeeper, a fierce dog. Here the fox is a dapper cabaret-goer, the cock is the cabaret singer, and the dog is a formidable doorman. Nicely done! After the four or five pages of presentation of either story in its updated and visually geometric form, La Fontaine's text follows. My reaction to these individual pairs of stories is much the same reaction I had to the larger book. I love the images and wish I could understand more of Perret's versions of these fables! I have not yet had any luck in tracking down the cassettes and toys, mentioned on the back cover here as they are in the hardbound book. There are four pamphlets in this set. I still have one pamphlet to find.
