{"product_id":"wildwood-fairy-tales-and-fables-re-imagined-9780983195955","title":"Wildwood: fairy tales and fables re-imagined","description":"These fanciful stories are based on well-known European fairy tales and fables. As with the originals, some are light and whimsical, others ferociously grim. They are written in the traditional language and style that we remember from childhood, but unlike the originals, they are not for children. Adult lovers of fairy tales may, on reflection, have wondered how fared the wedding night of a princess who could not endure a pea; what became of Hansel and Gretel after their hideous ordeal; what inner anguish the naked emperor suffered as he doggedly paraded past his gaping subjects; and whence came the outlandish tale of a wolf successfully passing himself off as a grandmother. These and other questions are answered in Wildwood's fourteen satirical tales.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kate Kasten\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Kate Kasten\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/14\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 198\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.51lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.99h x 5.24w x 0.45d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780983195955\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/0001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKate Kasten is the author of the novels, The De-Conversion of Kit Lamb, Ten Small Beds and Better Days.
