Synopsis 101 Fun Fables by : Bernie L. Calaway
101 Fun Fables is a saucy collection of animal fables with more than a touch of whimsy. Every story, even so, is juicy with its own spiritual spark found in its ending moral and practical life application. The humor is deep but gentle; the life lessons are simple but pointed. Enjoy it as a fun read or make the stories work for you by spicing up your writing, speech, and thinking.

Synopsis Fractured Frazzled Folk Fables and Fairy Farces by : Jay Dubya
Fractured Frazzled Folk Fables and Fairy Farces is adult literature that satirizes classic children's folk tales, fables and fairy tales into more mature presentations featuring adult language, content and humor. Author Jay Dubya goes right to work retelling Aesop's Fables into "A Sap's Fables." Adult renditions of "The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse," "The Boy Who Cried Wolf," "The Wind and the Sun," "A Wolf in Sheep's Clothing," "The Lion and the Mouse," "The Crow and the Pitcher," and "The Rabbit and the Turtle" are all cleverly portrayed. Other famous fables rewritten into adult accounts are "The Fox and the Crow," "The Goose That Laid the Golden Egg," "The Grasshopper and the Ants," "The Lark and Its Offspring," "The Miller, His Son and the Jackass," "Belling the Cat" and finally "The Dog, the Fox and the Stream." Folk and Fairy Tales from England, France, Germany and Russia are also imaginatively assaulted and converted into adult-oriented stories. Jay Dubya thoroughly corrupts "The Three Little Piglet Brothers," "The Flashing Elves," "The Golden Goose's Goosing Curse," "The Notorious Sleeping Beauty" and "Petite Red Riding Hood." Other classic stories that are not saved from degeneration are "Jack's Magnificent Beanstalk," "Hansel and Gretel Dumkoff," "Little Ebony Sambo," "Rapunzel's Draping Hair" and "Tom Thumb's History." Finally, the author completely corrupts into adult parody rewrites "Peter W. and the Wolf," "The Rumpelstiltskin No-Spin Zone," "Beauty and the Beastly Beast," "Cinderella's Fella'" and the classic folktale "Flaky Snow White and the Seven Midgdwarfs." Fractured Frazzled Folk Fables and Fairy Farces is Jay Dubya's twenty-first book. This book is definitely not written for or to be read by children.

Synopsis The Animal Fable in Science Fiction and Fantasy by : Bruce Shaw
Though animal stories and fables stretch back into the antiquity of ancient India, Persia, Greece and Rome, the reasons for writing them and their resonance for readers (and listeners) remain consistent to the present. This work argues that they were essential sources of amusement and instruction--and were also often profoundly unsettling. Such authors in the realm of the animal fable as Tolkien, Freud, Voltaire, Bakhtin, Cordwainer Smith, Karel Capek, Vladimir Propp, and many more are discussed.

Synopsis Form and Fable in American Fiction by : Daniel Hoffman
Combining the disciplines of folklore and literary criticism in his perceptive readings of works by Irving, Hawthorne, Melville, and Mark Twain, Daniel Hoffman demonstrates how these authors transformed materials from both high and popular culture, from their European past and their American present, in works that helped to form our national consciousness. In his new preface, Hoffman describes the evolution of his critical method and suggests the book's value for contemporary readers.
