Product Description
In a perfect pairing of talent, this volume blends twenty illustrations by Peter Sís with Jorge Luis Borgess 1957 compilation of 116 "strange creatures conceived through time and space by the human imagination," from dragons and centaurs to Lewis Carrolls Cheshire Cat and the Morlocks of H. G. Wellss The Time Machine. A lavish feast of exotica brought vividly to life with art commissioned specifically for this volume, The Book of Imaginary Beings will delight readers of classic fantasy as well as Borgess many admirers.
