This gorgeous retelling of the Japanese tale "The Fox, The Monk, and the Mikado of All Night's Dreaming" is quite different than the rest of the Sandman series. For starters, it is an illustrated novella not a graphic novel. Second, it may also be read easily as a stand-alone. In fact, I would strongly recommend it to lovers of fairy tales and retellings regardless of their feelings about the rest of the series. The illustrations are breathtaking. Cool artwork in this one, especially the huge spread of the "King of All Night's Dreaming". The Neil Gaiman/Yoshitaka Amano collaboration really worked for a Sandmanesque retelling of this Japanese folktale. I recommend reading the Afterward on the last page-Gaiman's story of how this book came about. ...è Sandman, l'uomo della sabbia, che è anche Morfeo, o Sogno, uno dei sette Eterni che precedono l'arrivo degli dei. (dall'introduzione) Sono dei Baku, disse il Volpone. Sono de mangiatori di sogni. La piccola volpe aveva sentito parlare dei Baku. Chi si desta da un sogno nefasto o foriero di sventura può invocare un Baku e sperare che questo divori il suo sogno, cancellando così tutti i cattivi presagi che esso porta con sé. (pagina 32) Ma i sogni sono ben strana cosa, e nessuno di noi, all'infuori del Re di Tutti i Sogni della Notte, può dire se siano reali o meno, né se siano in grado di dirci qualcosa dei tempi di là da venire.

Set in ancient Japan, this lyrical tale follows the ill-fated romance between a humble young monk and a magical, shape-changing she-fox. When the fox stumbles upon a band of demons discussing a plot to steal the monk's life through a dream trap, it will take all the fox's craftiness-and the intervention of Morpheus-to save him. Combining prose with stunning full-page paintings, The Dream Hunters also showcases Amano's art with an eight-page gatefold bringing an ethereal beauty to Morpheus and other classic Sandman characters.

This is more an illustrated story than graphic novel, which works perfectly for this magical ten year anniversary of Sandman project.
Neil Gaiman is a master of dreams and imagination retelling a classic Japanese fairytale in his own unique and respectful manner. Yoshitaka Amano is a legendary artist who accompanies Gaiman's words with a gallery of breathtaking illustrations that there can be no doubt are laced my myth and magic. Beyond appreciation, I know little about art, big to my untrained eye these images appear to range from sketch and charcoal to oils and water paints, emasoio) encapsulating the dreamy wonder of the story. The visceral beauty and ephemeral awe of the surreality of dreams and imagination are rendered exquisitely.
I am speechless and feel enriched. ( )
