Fantastic Fables

Don't judge a book by its cover -- if you're looking for tall tales about Greek gods or American folk heroes, you're in the wrong place. Instead, noted satirist Ambrose Bierce unleashes the full wrath of his wit on the leaders of industry, church, and state in this series of sharp-edged but hilariously spot-on short tales and vignettes.

  • "A collection of very brief tales similar in style to Aesop."@en
  • "1898. A wonderful collection of 245 tongue-in-cheek fables from the bitter pen of Ambrose Bierce. Bierce, who is one of the rare masters like Aesop and La Fontaine, often personified objects, animals and even abstract concepts to reinforce his satire."@en
