"Gathering together twenty-six of our most cherished fairy tales, including enduring classics like "Beauty and the Beast," "Jack and the Beanstalk," "The Little Mermaid," and "Bluebeard," Tatar expertly guides readers through the stories, exploring their historical origins, their cultural complexities, and their psychological effects.
Offering new translations of the non-English stories of Hans Christian Andersen, the Brothers Grimm, or Charles Perrault, Tatar captures the rhythms of oral storytelling and, with an extraordinary collection of over 300 often rare, mostly full-color paintings and drawings by celebrated illustrators such as Gustave Dore, George Cruikshank, and Maxfield Parrish, she expands our literary and visual sensibilities."--BOOK JACKET.
