Though they were first written over 300 years ago, this is the
first complete English translation of Jean de La Fontaine's comedic
classic Contes et nouvelles en vers. Both sexually charged and
wickedly funny, La Fontaine's Tales will surprise readers who know
him only from his work on fables for children. Though the writing
is more suggestive than vulgar, it still has the power to shock
readers unprepared for the darkness that inhabits these poems.
Included are nearly seventy illustrations dating from the 18th and
19th centuries, many of them rare, as well as extensive commentary
by the editor.
