Running an article on fairy stories without mentioning Hans Christian Andersen or Mother Goose would be unthinkable. The zoo did not spring from the ground like a soap bubble, and it does seem as though TIME might include a nod to the author...

Nobody likes to feel cheated, and when you buy a cake of soap only to find that two-thirds of the package volume is box, wrapping and air, and one-third is soap, there is a subtle but unmistakable letdown feeling.

Too often the view is obscured by the arabesques of an intricate and suspensefully entertaining plot, but often enough the onlooker is left quietly alone with Actress York...
