Abstract

en_US I enjoy this spirited book. Not quite as sardonic as Bierce, it is in the same direction. FC offers a good beginning taste of the good stuff that goes on here. The cheese hits the fox right in the nose, he breaks into tears, and he finally runs wailing from the scene. The crow cannot understand what has just happened, but he eats the cheese. As the illustration shows nicely at the end of LM, the lion fulfills the mouse's wish never to have to tremble again -- by eating him! In MSA, the ass sells himself and takes a trip with the profits! The foxes do cut off their tails, and then they mock the fox who found the first tail in a trap: Tail is out of fashion, and he has two of them! The vintner comes upon the complaining fox in FG, tries to hit him but instead hits the vine. Grapes fall, and the fox makes off with them. The cat does end up eating the bat and then says Tastes just like mouse! The sons of the dying father are still digging in the vineyard as the book closes. Good fun, including the spirited black-and-white illustrations.
