When they strip us naked like frying baboons over industrial-chemo nitrate bonfires in the back of gutted factories, asphyxiating from scrutiny and laws- we will always have our memories, and those mothers can't do anything about it. -M. R. E. 1993

For the first time ever, Bill Willingham's acclaimed, Eisner Award-winning series FABLES is presented in a deluxe hardcover edition collecting issues #1-10. When a savage creature known only as the Adversary conquered the fabled lands of legends and fairy tales, all of the infamous inhabitants of folklore were forced into exile. Disguised among the normal citizens of modern-day New York, these magical characters have created their own peaceful and secret society within an exclusive luxury apartment building called Fabletown. When Snow White's party-girl sister, Rose Red, is apparently murdered, it's up to Fabletown's sheriff, the reformed and pardoned Big Bad Wolf, to find the killer. Meanwhile, trouble of a different sort brews at the Fables' upstate farm where non-human inhabitants are preaching revolution – and threatening Fabletown's carefully nurtured secrecy.

Written by Ralph M. Flores, illustrated by family and friends, and published posthumously, these thirteen fables are fractured in that some are take-offs on Aesop's Fables and Navajo coyote tales, but all show topical twists unique to Ralph's wry, indulgent humor. The moral at the end of each fable, if we didn't realize sooner, alerts us the animal characters are stand-ins for human fools. Not a children's book, but kids along with adults will take away from it what they see in the mirror that Ralph is holding up. Paperback and Kindle available on Amazon.
