Fables de La Fontaine
(Éditions Lito, 2012)
This large-format book (10 x 12) presents thirty-one fables on 89 pages. The artistry is regularly creative. This book was worth publishing! The cicada here has an accordion or concertina that lies on the ground as the ...
Fables Impertinentes
(Éditions Retz, 2010)
One of a cycle of books produced by Retz as impertinentes. Each fable's retelling plays some game, like GA's substitution and multiple placement of pitit all over the fable, as in this line 'I was singing,' replied the ...

Le Rat de Ville et le Rat des Champs
(Calligraphics, 2012)

La Cigale et la Fourmi
(Calligraphics, 2012)
Here is an extra copy found at Turtle Island Bookstore in Berkeley earlier in the summer. Reviewing it in Berkeley some weeks later led to my encounter with Paul Veres. As I wrote of the good copy, here is Paul Veres' ...
