Mufaro's Beautiful Daughters: An African Tale by John Steptoe
5.0
Beautiful "Cinderella" story set in a fictional African country, modeled on an area of Zimbabwe. The story follows familiar tropes= The harsh sister, a journey, people along a path that are really magical people...
The beauty is in the details. Particularly (for me) the artwork. The images are oddly 3D. Almost too lifelike, but not at all bad. I am just unfamiliar with the technique. It looks like photos were taken, but they were drawn over or painted over and collaged or something. There is something about this particular artist and his technique that is completely original and engaging.
