Pros & Cons

Pros

Italian folktales by italo calvino is a collection of italian folktales. The stories were collected and rewritten by the great novelist and literary critic.

They always cheer me up or give a smile. The tales are quick and easy to remember. Lots of puzzles and rewards for good behavior. Not that the tales dwell on these things in detail but you will encounter them.

More artful and comic as narratives, surprising in ways grimm's rarely is. Less lugubrious, less sentimental and have fewer predictable trope. Worthy of the legacy left by the brothers grimm and others of this genre.

English translation by george martin is taut and clean. Arrived in very good condition just as advertised!

Cons

The prose in this collection is dry and sparse. The kindle version has only 53 tales, the print version over 200.
