Abstract
-
en_US
Now here is a book! Its forty-nine siblings will go on exhibit at the Corcoran in D.C. in November of '97. They were given to various D.C. binders for creative binding. Cita's specs are a tale in themselves: hollow back construction, sewn on three linen tapes, hand sewn silk head bands, marbled end sheets, full tan oasis goatskin cover, gold stamped calf title onlays. I had asked her to make me a nice book of one of the copies still left, and she certainly has done that! After eleven bestiary items presented bilingually on facing pages, there are seven fables, The Oyster, The Flea, The Butterfly, The Monkey, The Mouse, The Spider, and The Falcon. I find the last three the strongest. They are followed by three good drolleries.
