The Broken Mirror: A Fable

Coe's modern fairytale/parable is an odd little book. Beautiful illustrations, but reproduced so small that it's difficult to see the detail. A story of how we perceive reality, how we can change the world, but told in an obvious, broad strokes way that disengages the sense of wonder. Coe is a good writer, but this book is wide of the mark. Shame.
