Angela Slatter's first U.S. collection features twelve
of the award-winning Australian author's finest, darkest fairy tales, and adds
two new stories to her marvelous cauldron of fiction. Stories peopled by women
and girls-fearless, frightened, brave, bold, frail, and fantastical-who take the
paths less travelled, accept (and offer) poisoned apples, and embrace
transformation in all its forms.
Reminiscent of
Angela Carter at her best, Slatter's work is both timeless and fresh:
fascinating new reflections from the enchanted mirrors of fairy tales and
forklore. Includes an introduction by Theodora Goss, author of _The Thorn and
the Blossom_.
