Son las hadas creaciones de la fantasía, pero también restos de las antiguas divinidades y, sobre todo, sustancias del alma venidas para dar nombre a las inquietudes de la infancia, esa edad misteriosa cuyos recuerdos agitan todavía el agua del espejo.

Collects some rare and not-so-rare Victorian fairy tales and fantasy. Good stuff. (

A book I found outside a house in a bag intended for the rubbish. It is full of unusual and fascinating stories and illustrations.
