4.0 out of 5 stars Good rendering of harsh stories, February 6, 2005
By wiredweird "wiredweird" (Earth, or somewhere nearby) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)   
P. Craig Russell is one of the most literate comic artists now active. He is best known for his opera adaptations, but he goes after a different kind of story here.

These are two of Wilde's darker fairy tales, the kind that are meant for adult readers. There's nothing "adult" here, but both stories depict loss and death, and sacrifices wasted. They're good as short stories, and Russell's artwork puts very good faces on them. The depictions exaggerate some characters, but just enough to support Wilde's stories.

There's something in this book for many different readers: good visual storytelling, fairy tales for people who thought they were too old, and some of Wilde's lesser-known works. Just don't expect happy endings.
