5.0 out of 5 stars A charming set of fairy tales, June 11, 2000
By A Customer
In this book Walter De La Mare has written four fairy tales, and the best one of them is "Lord Fish". In it he tells us for the story of John Cobbler, an indolent young man who likes to fish more than everything else. The desire for finding new places to angle fish there one day drives him in the forsaken lands where once lived an evil wizard and there he finds something as horrible as sorrowful, as beautiful and the adventure he takes later, is going to change his life and the life of his mother.. The rest of the tales are very enjoyable too, but the first one is the best of them. Truly, Walter De La Mare has written some of the most beautiful tales I've ever read, all in a superior for this genre style. You really shouldn't miss this book.
