Abstract
-
en_US
Here is Gallimard's delightful French version of Little, Brown's 1990 "The Best of Aesop's Fables." As I wrote then, this is a pleasing and tasteful book. The versions are brief and often leave the last phase to the reader; there are no morals. The illustrations are in a contemporary New Yorker cartoon style. LM is different and good: simple ropes bind the lion, who says nothing after his rescue. MSA features a nice repeated line ( " How silly you are " ) and ends with the miller never seeing his ass again. TMCM has the cook intrude twice, but no animals intrude.
