An English translation soon appeared with an introduction by the Nobel Prize winner John Galsworthy and was widely and well reviewed. Later Walt Disney made his famous movie of the book, and as a consequence Salten's intimate, delicate, poetic, and gripping tale of forest life, a book that captures both the calm and the disquiet of the animal world, has come to be thought of as a children's book. Bambi is certainly a book that children can enjoy, but it is also a moving and lasting contribution to the literature of the natural world. In Damion Searls's new translation the fawn Bambi and his mother, the groves and thickets of the forest, the open and dangerous space of the great field, the ever-present threat of the human-the whole intricate weave of life and death that Salten handles so deftly-all come alive for a new generation of readers. Paul Reitter's afterword discusses the surprising political readings to which Salten's fable of the woods was subjected"-- Provided by publisher. 700 1 $a Searls, Damion, $e translator. 700 1 $a Reitter, Paul, $e writer of afterword. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20230706013530.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F0D021E65B3C11ED8F2A915D41ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
