"The secretive, mysterious world of Hoffmann’s Tales epitomised what Freud termed "the Uncanny". This courageous series of illustrations fully captures that sense of unease before something familiar yet strange. Daniel Bueno’s graphic technique is an explicit homage to Max Ernst and his poetical use of collage. The artist covers all Hoffmann’s “mystery” themes to which he seems to hold the key. The mystery of the human condition is captured in skilfully assembled snippets, pointed shapes, references and allusions, echoing the countless references and irritating asides of the great storyteller. There is a vague sense of disconcertion, almost dismay as the narrative veers from everyday greyness to the mellifluous derision of magic. But Hoffmann truly seems to have shared with Daniel Bueno the hidden secret of his tales."
