Translated from the French by Naomi Lewis. 112 pages. hardcover. keywords: Children's Books Literature France. FROM THE PUBLISHER-Centuries before Andersen, Perrault or the brothers Grimm wrote down their immortal fairy tales, a twelfth century French poet, Marie, collected these marvellous tales from the minstrels who roamed Brittany and Celtic England, and turned them into magical stories in verse form known as lais or lays. Here are tales of love, of valiant knights and proud ladies, of nobility and chivalry. Here, too, are swan messengers, wolf-knights, hawk princes and a city where 'every single house and hall and tower seemed to be made of silver'-magical and wonderful happenings which form the very essence of fairy tale. Naomi Lewis's masterly English translation has captured the spirit and vision of Marie's original text, while at the same time bringing the stories to life for today's readers. The text, combined with Angela Barrett's breathtaking illustrations, make this book a modern classic that will be treasured by all lovers of fairy tale. inventory #14334.
