I dusted off my Précieuse French to read this and found it delightful. It highlights the different French/English meanings of Bête/bête vs Beast/beast: here the Beast is cursed not only to look monstrous but also to appear stupid. Which does limit my interest in the romance as I love me some witty repartée, but instead I got monkey servants and a room full of basically TVs to keep Beauty entertained all day so it works out. The Fairy politics revealed following the big transformation was a fascinating bonus and I was particularly intrigued by the dangers and rewards of becoming a snake. ( )
If you're expecting this story to resemble the Disney movie of the same name you will be thouroughly disappointed. This was so vastly different that I barely recognized the movie Disney made from it. That said, the tale is still a fun read and this edition especially. With the interactive elements and the lovely illustrations, this is the version I would tell people to go for. It enhances the story so, so much. I would recommend it. 5 out of 5 stars. ( )
I hate to say that the Disney movie is a great improvement on this "original" version, with it's dream sequences and postscript of multiple chapters of narratively null contorted explanations for what happened and total disclaimed snobbery. I did love the Palace's television room, though that would bollix a dramatization in no time. ( )
It was fun to revisit one of the oldest versions of this story we have extant. I had forgotten how different it is from more current versions, and I admit to getting a little lost in which king was married to which fairy and whose daughter was half fairy and so on. But overall I love it. ( )
