Synopsis: Originally published as a two-volume set thirty years ago The Juniper Tree is distunguished first by the selection of stories. Lore Segal and Maurice Sendak have jointly culled 27 from the 210 in the complete collection, and their contents page presents a fascinating critical statement. The translations are another distinguishing quality of the Segal/Sendak edition. Both translators have been painstakingly faithful to the German texts; they have not cut, retold, or bowdlerized. In addition, Segal and Jarrell bring to their renderings of Grimm the grace and precision that are characterisitic of their own original prose. This must-have edition for every home library is jacketed and cloth-bound and has a bookmark ribbon.
