A review by julenka_reads
Die Schöne und das Biest by Gabrielle-Suzanne de Villeneuve
3.0
An enchanting and wonderfully illustrated edition that brings the fairytale even more to life.
The original version is quite different to what we know from pop culture and the Disney movies, but still the same at its core. It is all about seeing with your soul and not paying too much attention to what the eye can see. I adore the story, even though of course it doesn't hold up with our modern views and the ways that girls and people not belonging to nobility are treated are dreadful, even in a fairytale, which could make anything impossible possible.
