This book forms part of our 'Pook Press' imprint, celebrating the golden age of illustration in children's literature and transforming the best works into modern-day collections which can be enjoyed for generations to come. 'The Zankiwank and the Bletherwitch' is a true classic of Children's literature; an imaginative foray into unchartered territories, situations and characters. It was written in 1896 by S.J. Adair Fitzgerald, and has remained a popular, though little understood book ever since. The text is accompanied by a series of elegant black-and-white illustrations by Arthur Rackham (1867-1939). One of the most celebrated painters of the British Golden Age of Illustration, his artistry still delights both young and old over a century later. The text is presented in its original translation, alongside Rackham's beautiful images which only serve to refine Adair Fitzgerald's masterful story-telling.
