pick#ReadingResolutions Day 15: In my review of these two books, I juxtaposed the #OldAndNew versions of the same faery tales; the old magnificently illustrated by Maurice Sendak, and the new created by the unparalleled Shaun Tan. Full review here: https://gatheringbooks.org/2016/01/11/saturday-reads-6/ - will tag host once Litsy is working.
#aprilamazingreads #day7 #bestintranslation I guess I will go with the Brothers Grimm. I thought about highlighting the Rumi poems or the Oedipus plays of Sophocles. @jess.how

Of course I got books - and a glorious Voyage e-reader which I adore. It was my reader niece, though (the one to whom I can send a copy of The Secret History and say "read this so we can talk about it") who blew me away with thoughtfulness. This is a two volume, first edition with illustrations by Maurice Sendak. It's a treasure.
