Book Description Pictorial Cover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. Fucikova, Renata (illustrator). First Edition. New York, NY, Purple Bear Books, 2005. First edition. 4to. Pictorial hardcover with bright red endpapers, charmingly illustrated by Renata Fucikova in color throughout. The delicate young geisha Cho-Cho-san 'Madame Butterfly' weds the callow Lieutenant Pinkerton, not knowing that the marriage is merely a convenience for him while he stays in Japan.

With a text adapted directly from Giacomo Puccini's 1905 opera, including Pinkerton's chauvinism and Cho-Cho-san's ritual suicide. This picture book is for readers 10 to adult.
