The Orange Fairy Book: 33 Traditional Stories & Fairy Tales

Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Children who enjoy fairy tales often skip the prefaces, just as those who gift these books to them tend to overlook them. This raises the question: for whom are prefaces intended? Authors typically write them for their own satisfaction, sharing thoughts on their work and its intentions after ensuring accuracy in the printed text. However, it seems that prefaces are mainly read by fellow authors and critics, who might skim them for insights without engaging with the entire book. This trend suggests that authors could benefit from being more candid in their prefaces, perhaps even critiquing their own work, as no one can critique an author better than themselves—provided they possess a sense of humor. If they lack this quality, it may be wise for them to say less. The publisher specializes in reviving rare and classic works, utilizing advanced technology to digitally reconstruct texts while preserving their original format. While some imperfections from the original may be replicated, most are repaired to maintain the integrity of these historical works.
