Interpretation In Favor Of Books Good Faeries Bad Faeries

"Once upon a time, I thought faeries lived only in books, old folktales, and the past. That was before they burst upon my life as vibrant, luminous beings, permeating my art and my everyday existence, causing glorious havoc..." In the long-awaited sequel to the international bestseller "Faeries", artist Brian Froud rescues pixies, gnomes, and other faeries from the isolation of the nursery and the distance of history, bringing them into the present day with vitality and imagination. In this richly imagined new book, Brian reveals the secrets he has learned from the faeries-- what their noses and shoes look like, what mischief and what gentle assistance they can give, what their souls and their dreams are like.

As it turns out, faeries aren't all sweetness and light. In addition to such good faeries as Dream Weavers and Faery Godmothers, Brian introduces us to a host of less well behaved creatures-- traditional bad faeries like Morgana le Fay, but also the Soul Shrinker and the Gloominous Doom. The faery kingdom, we find, is as subject to good and evil as the human realm. Brilliantly documenting both the dark and the light, "Good Faeries/Bad Faeries" presents a world of enchantment and magic that deeply compels the imagination.

Crit Containing Books Good Faeries Bad Faeries

I first learned about this book three years ago, and although it's been on my list since then, I haven't gotten around to buying it until last week. Wow - can I say that I regret not getting it sooner. The drawings are gorgeous - Brian Froud is, without a doubt, one of the most talented fantasy artists alive today. More than that, though, was that the information about faeries, from the introduction, to the picture captions, seemed to take on a life of their own. You can tell, just by skimming,

Beautiful artwork and some good myths from the British isles.

I've said it before, I'll say it again. The Other Crowd are not all goodness and light. You won't find the Victorian interpretation of them here.I really enjoy the way this book is set up. You have Good Faeries on one side, flip the book over and there are the Bad Faeries. I was guided to read the Bad Faeries first, then gave myself the evening to let it all sink in, continuing my journey with the Good Faeries the next day. If you have The Heart of Faerie Oracle, then many of these faces will

The five stars are for the superb and very atmospheric art that Mr Froud excels at. The downside is the writing left me feeling meh, but lets not dwell on that. GREAT artwork and worth every penny for that.

Beautiful artwork and a delightful mix of faeries from folklore and faeries who play with the delicate balance of being a happy, productive human (such as the Indecision Faery or the Tongue Tangler). A good deal of heart and adoration/respect for fae and the fantastical goes into this book and you can tell with each introduction, with the vibrant artwork, and all the playful descriptions. I received this book several years ago as a Christmas present from my mother and I wish it hadn't taken me

Brian Froud has got the fairies in his pocket! And I am sure they want to be there (at least some of the time!) Excellent art and messages from the fairies. I am just not sure about "bad" fairies. I believe they are more mischievous vs. bad. At least that is what they tell me! They say, "There are two sides to every story, you know!"

A beautifully illustrated book thats a delight to dip in and out of. Froud makes sure to explain that our ideas of good and bad dont really apply to faeries. They all have both lightness and darkness. This grey area is exemplified in how the book can be turned upside down as you get towards the middle, and we can see the other side, so to speak, of a particular faerie. Its always best to stay on a faeries good side, no matter how good they may appear.
