Truly an unearthed treasure of Sicilian folk and fairy tales,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Beautiful Angiola: The Lost Sicilian Folk and Fairy Tales of Laura Gonzenbach (Paperback)
Beautiful Angiola: The Lost Sicilian Folk And Fairy Tales Of Laura Gonzenbach is truly an unearthed treasure of Sicilian folk and fairy tales. Originally compiled by a young Swiss-German woman named Laura Gonzenbach, who spoke with peasant women throughout Sicily, gathered their stories, and published a High German edition in 1870, Beautiful Angiola has since been rediscovered by children's literature expert Jack Zipes, who translated it into English for the first time. Zipes also contributed an introduction to this timeless collection of sometimes tongue-in- cheek, sometimes moralistic, sometimes sad, sometimes uproarious stories and legends. Beautiful Angiola is a "must-have" for personal, academic, and community library folktale and fairy tale collections.
