Jerking everyone around ~ ( ) A pale shadow of the hardback edition and frustrating in many ways. Too small and flimsy to really convey the beauty of the original, and the author's introduction only tells half the story that later emerged. Necessary for completists and those who need the answer to the puzzle written down. Far more worthwhile to track down the original. Zeige 4 von 4 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
In paperback, the book that touched off the treasure hunt of the century-with a full explanation of the Masquerade Riddle.For three years, treasure-seekers from both sides of the Atlantic sought a fabulous golden hare buried by artist Kit Williams. Williams had devised an unusual guide to the hare's whereabouts: a multilayered riddle that he told in a fairy tale of his own imagining, and presented in dazzling, cryptic, paintings.When the hare was finally unearthed by a British engineer, many were left wanting to know exactly how the clues worked out. In this paperback reprint of Masquerade, the author supplies an illustrated preface that pulls the strings, finds the goal, and points to what's important: the village chemist's daughter, the atomic weight of the elements, the shadows of the equinox, Henry VIII's first wife. Williams explains how numbers and colors correspond to the intricate ballet, and how the eyes really do see the answer. And of course, here are the magical pages that tell the tale of Jack the hare, and his journey to the sun. They are still there to discover, ponder, rediscover. And understand at last.Suitable for ages 7 and up. 73,000 copies in print. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
