Abstract
-
en_US
Some fifty-six fables on 123 pages, with a T of C at the back. The seventeen illustrations, all black-and-white and taking a full page, show some good imagination. True to La Fontaine's version, the hare is playing a musical instrument as the tortoise goes forward; in La Fontaine's telling, this must be the start of the race (29). LM's illustration is good; the net serves as a checkerboard prison in front of the lion's face until we recognize the small rodent at the lower right breaking open one cord (39). Is that laborer who is about to outwit his lazy sons winking at us on 45? FK (119) presents a grasping heron king -- or perhaps better queen? -- who mysteriously has a hand with which to grasp a now defenseless frog. The cover shows a large crow with a large piece of cheese. A small red fox stands over the title at the upper right and reappears in larger form on the back cover. That cover, in a form of minimalism I guess, lists the titles of several fables.
