Fables By Jean de La Fontaine (Fables) – In French language.
***
Jean de La Fontaine was described by Flaubert as the only French poet to understand and master the texture of the French language before Victor Hugo. He was best known for his fables, which are classics of French literature. Dispite it’s condition, the book vibrates with an antique feel. A joy to read from.
