Beastly Tales from Here and There, Poems Vikram Seth
Viking 1992 New York 0670846570 / 9780670846573 Hardcover Very Good in Good dust jacket Signed by Author
DJ has extensive edgewear, handling wear from little hands. White area of DJ has darkened somewhat. It is in mylar cover for preservation. Book has some handling soil and mellow pages. Solid binding. Inscribed and signed by the author on title page "For Roger Metham, Vikram Seth". "Familiar characters in a new and magical form, such as the greedy crocodile who was outwitted by the monkey or the steady tortoise who out-ran the hare, here take their place beside a newly minted gallery of characters and creatures who are quirky, comical and always fun. Of the ten fables told here, two come from India [including the delightful story of the louse and the mosquito], two from China, two from Greece, two from the Ukraine, and two, as the author puts it, 'came directly to me from the land of Gup. ' Color Illustrations 8vo 8" - 9" tall 93 pages Signed by Author
