Description
Jean de La Fontaine (1621-1695), one of the best-loved French poets, is the foremost fabulist since Aesop, and his books have entertained generations of readers throughout France and the Western world. In Once Again, La Fontaine, Norman R. Shapiro brings his scholarly knowledge of fable lore and outstanding facility with English verse together to produce beautiful, witty translations. Adults will be captured by the subtle and sophisticated layers of meaning that Shapiro has skillfully brought to light, and children will delight in the moral tales. Readers of all ages will appreciate the sly and playful illustrations by David Schorr.
