Book tinderbox8/6/2023 I shall post a short review after reading each one. I couldn’t help it they looked so good that I went and bought them all. The Little Black Classic Collection by penguin looks like it contains lots of hidden gems. My four star rating of this reflects my opinion of the overall pieces together not just the Tinderbox, which on an individual basis I would give a three star rating. I think this is a good selection of his work, and it contains my personal favourite (The Nightingale.) If you’ve never read any of his work then this is a good place to start. That has a clear cut meaning the reader can interpret and understand rather than a story that just happened for no particular reason.Īlso in this edition are several other fairy tales such as The Red Shoes, The Princess on the Pea and a couple of others. Indeed, the Nightingale is a much more memorable tale, and the one I think this edition should have been named after. I don’t feel that the story has an overall morale or meaning like some of his other tales. I like the Tinderbox however, I don’t think it is the best of the fairy tales in this edition. He uses his cunning to try and save himself. Indeed, he orders them to fetch him a princess in which he is arrested for by her farther. He later discovers that the box is magical and can summon three dogs to do the holders bidding, so no wonder the witch wanted it back. But, he decides to keep the box for himself and to slay the witch. A witch has tasked him with fetching her tinderbox from a well, as a reward he gets to keep the silver that has been hidden with it. The Tinderbox is one of the short tales in this edition and it depicts the life of a greedy, and quite cunning, solider.
