As 50 narrativas presentes neste livro surgem do limiar da palavra escrita — do antigo Egito — e, atravessando os séculos e continentes, aportam no século XX, nas águas de Saint-Exupéry. Ao lado de grandes autores — da singela perspicácia de Esopo à crítica mordaz e velada Friedrich Nietzsche ao cristianismo —, perfilam-se breves histórias — da África, Ásia, Europa, América e Oceania —, cuja autoria é desconhecida, pois suas origens mergulham nas névoas do tempo. As fábulas são mais remotas do que imaginamos: quem conhece a famosíssima “A Formiga e a Cigarra”, coligida em versos por La Fontaine, há de se surpreender ao ler “Os Ratinhos”, dos índios sioux.

Há, aqui, fábulas antigas, como as escritas por Fedro, e outras modernas, elaboradas por Franz Kafka e Khalil Gibran. De entremeio, surgem Leonardo da Vinci (para retirá-las do sono sempiterno em que mergulhadas) e Jean de La Fontaine (para desenvolvê-las e burilá-las até a plenitude).

Apólogos e parábolas gestados na Bíblia convivem placidamente com a angústia de Allan Pöe, o lirismo de Liev Tolstói e o sarcasmo de Ambrose Bierce. E aos breves contos tradicionais, juntam-se historietas encantadoras de Charlotte Brontë, Oscar Wilde, Anton Tchekhov, Ryūnosuke Akutagawa e outros escritores.

1.0 out of 5 stars PÉSSIMO. Não comprem. Histórias sem pé nem cabeça e imorais.

PÉSSIMO. Não comprem. Histórias sem pé nem cabeça e imorais. São fábulas que além de não educar ou entreter, deseducam e irritam por seu conteúdo baixo e vil. Pena ter perdido o período para devolução por não ter lido antes.
