The reason that most people value fairy tales, I would say, is that they do not detain us with hope but simply validate what is. Even people who have never known hunger, let alone a murderous stepmother, still have a sense-from dreams, from books, from news broadcasts-of utter blackness, the erasure of safety and comfort and trust. Fairy tales tell us that such knowledge, or fear, is not fantastic but realistic. … The Grimm tales still invoke nature, more than God, as life's driving force, and nature is not kind. -Joan Acocella, The New Yorker Everyone should possess and know Grimm's Fairy Talesone of the great books of the world. -Richard Adams, The New York Times Book Review ...this one bookother than the Biblethat has truly made Western man. -P.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
