Abstract: en_US This 101-page privately published book seems a curiosity. It contains over two hundred paragraph-length fables without illustration. I have read the first eleven fables and find them quite unremarkable. At first I thought they might be humorous journalistic fables, perhaps similar to those of George Ade or even Ambrose Bierce. Now they seem to me to be utterly straightforward. If I can locate a problem with them, it is that they do not teem with analogies. They do not invite the reader to think immediately of five cases where the story fits perfectly. Perhaps my judgement is influenced by the fact that I have found four typos in these first eleven fables. This collection of fable books exists in part to find and preserve together little-known ephemeral treasures like this little book.
