A new selection of 30 tales to mark the 200 year anniversary of Andersen''s birth in 2005.

Tiina Nunnally''s sparkling translation captures the rawness and immediacy of Andersen''s style, for the first time enabling English readers to be as startled and amazed as his original readers were, and revealing the unique inventiveness of Andersen''s genius.

At a time when children''s stories were formal, moral and didactic, Hans Christian Andersen revolutionized the genre, giving an anarchic twist to traditional folklore and creating a huge number of utterly original stories that sprang directly from his imagination. From the exuberant early stories such as ''The Emperor''s New Clothes'', though poignant masterpieces such as ''The Little Mermaid'' and ''The Ugly Duckling'', to the darker, more subversive later tales written for adults, the stories included here are endlessly experimental, both humorous and irreverent, sorrowful and strange.
