Abstract

en_US
A really beautiful set of three books. Pack and his wife picked this as their favorite when we reviewed a great day's findings from Kanda. In this third volume, a T of C at the Japanese front is followed by twelve fables and an epilogue presented in Japanese script with delightful blue cartoons. Then on 54-59 we find the unadorned French texts going in the Western direction! The fables here include The Two Pigeons, OR, DW, MM, The Lion Going to War, LM, AD, The Old Man and His Children, The Cobbler and the Banker, The Lion, the Wolf, and the Fox, The Citizen of the Danube, and TMCM. The best of the illustrations, I think, are those for OR, The Old Man and His Children, The Lion, the Wolf, and the Fox, and TMCM. The beautiful dust jacket and cover present a front stage of a monkey, elephants, a mouse, a lion, and a jackal, surrounded by birds, a ram, and rabbits; the Japanese back cover features a diamond of elephants, lions, antelope, and foxes moving around a wolf's head.
