Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm : Grimm's Fairy Tales

'Mr Joseph Conrad, the author, writes: I don’t remember any child’s book. I don’t think I ever read any; the first book I remember distinctly is Hugo’s "Travailleurs de la Mer" which I read at the age of seven. But within the last two years I’ve participated in my son’s (age 5) course of reading, and I share his tastes – in prose, Grimm and Andersen; in verse, Lear.'

Century: 1900-1945     Reader/Listener/Group: Joseph Conrad      Print: Book
