Beautiful Darkness
of Fabien Vehlmann, Kerascoët (Illustrator), Helge Dascher (Translator)
Description
KerascoĂ«tâs and Fabien Vehlmannâs unsettling and gorgeous anti-fairy tale is a searing condemnation of our vast capacity for evil writ tiny. Join princess Aurora and her friends as they journey to civilization's heart of darkness in a bleak allegory about surviving the human experience. The sweet faces and bright leaves of KerascoĂ«tâs delicate watercolors serve to highlight the evil that dwells beneath Vehlmann's story as pettiness, greed, and jealousy take over. Beautiful Darkness is a harrowing look behind the routine politeness and meaningless kindness of civilized society.
