Abstract

A wonderful find with the help of a student of Fable Literature just a year ago. The front cover is a first gem: the grasshopper comes from the welfare office with food stamps, cash, and liquor in his four hands and says suckers of the trudging Antco ants with their attache cases. Some of the fables lapse into questionable taste, gratuitous violence, and outright sexism. In one of the best, the grasshopper inherits all the possessions of the overworked ant after the latter's heart attack (8). Others include The Elephant and Aphrodite (16), AD (23), and CP (inside the back cover).
