A proposito di questo titolo
The Butterfly by Hans Christian Andersen is a gently ironic fairy tale about longing, choice, and the quiet consequences of indecision.
A butterfly, determined to find the perfect bride among the flowers, flits from bloom to bloom with a critical eye. Each candidate is admired—and dismissed—for being too stiff, too sentimental, too fleeting, too ordinary, or too realistic about what time brings. Spring fades into summer, and summer into autumn, while the butterfly continues to wait for perfection.
What remains is not a grand tragedy, but something subtler: a life spent choosing, rather than living.
Narrated with warmth and clarity by Liz Leafloor, this classic tale reveals Andersen’s signature blend of humor, tenderness, and quiet moral insight. Beneath its light, whimsical surface lies a reflective meditation on youth, freedom, companionship, and the human tendency to delay commitment in pursuit of an ideal that never arrives.
A timeless story for listeners of all ages, The Butterfly lingers long after it ends—like a memory of summer, or a choice made too late.
