Synopsis
Reynard the Fox has been a staple trickster character of European literature since at least the Middle Ages. The tales of his schemes have been told many times, and he always manages to win readers’ sympathies. Reynard is a rascal, a ne’er-do-well. While we may suffer from his pranks, at the same time we smile at the shrewd thinking through which he escapes hopeless situations. In this expertly retold version, the classic tales of Reynard’s exploits find a new life. They speak to us now as much as ever, for who among us doesn’t know a Reynard-like figure in our lives?
