Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Near Fine. Color Illustrations (illustratore). Not Indicated. The book is signed by both the author and illustrator on the title page. From Publishers Weekly Ripe with imagery and insights into South African culture, this expanded version of a Zulu myth is told with a natural ease. Mbaba Mwana Waresa, the rain goddess, chooses Thandiwe to be her companion. But because Thandiwe is a mortal, he must first be tested. Thandiwe proves himself steadfast in the face of ridicule and a fearsome storm, and then, in choosing the goddess's inner beauty over a mortal woman's outer beauty, demonstrates his wisdom. Wolfson, a professional storyteller, lets metaphors spring as if spontaneously into her prose ("a rainbow slid down from the heavens"), and her pacing is skillfully measured. First-time illustrator Parms, given the dicey assignment of representing an ethereal goddess amid a temporal world, resorts to somewhat literal interpretations?the goddess's face lightly imposed on the sky; warrior gods posed atop fluffy clouds. Stylistically his compositions seem stiff and detached in comparison to the fluid prose. Ages 6-11. Copyright 1996 Reed Business Information, Inc. Signed by Author & Illustrator.
