    • Hansel and Gretel, Rumpelstiltskin, and Snow White are among the jewels we owe to the German brothers Grimm, who began in the first decade of the 19th century to seek out and listen to village storytellers. The best-loved of the tales they discovered are now brought together with the marvelous pictures that in 1900 first established the reputation of one of the greatest children's illustrators of all time, Arthur Rackham.

      Als Findelkind im Armenhaus einer englischen Kleinstadt aufgewachsen, flüchtet sich der junge Oliver Twist aus den Fängen seines brutalen Lehrherrn nach London. Doch im Moloch der Großstadt gerät er bald an den skrupellosen Hehler Fagin, der ein seltsames Interesse daran zu haben scheint, Oliver in die Welt des Verbrechens hineinzuziehen ... Wegen seiner präzisen Milieuschilderungen und seines entwaffnenden Sinns für skurrile Komik zählt "Oliver Twist" bis heute zu den bedeutendsten und beliebtesten Romanen der englischsprachigen Literatur. (Dickens, Charles 1812 - 1870)
