"Clearly the text of choice for any reader...Zipes' edition deserves to become the standard translation" (German Quarterly)
"The Brother's Grimm were responsible for these fairytales that informed my life and made it as interesting, or as confused, or as wondrous as it is...they scared the shit out of me when I was a kid and they also gave me some of the most pleasure in life" (Terry Gilliam)
