Customer Reviews

Unforgetable

The Painter and the Wild Swans is one of the most beautiful books I've read. The art work is stunning, the story is unforgetable. This author's other books are also of equal quality. It is utterly, utterly incomprehensible that they are out of stock.

I Have A Hardback Copy

I have a hardback copy of the painter and the wild swans,i got it in north carolina i think that the art work is firt class.

mesmerizing

HOW could a book like this be out of print??

beautiful, evocative tale for children and adults

We took this out of the library some months ago and it is still with me. The tale is marvelous: light, airy, beautiful but the pictures are what carry the book. They are carefully crafted and have a spirituality all of their own. I can't wait to get my hands on a copy and send a couple to friends of mine. Transportational!
