A collection of 29 Fairy Tales for Grown-Ups - some of them sweet and endearing, and some of them just down right mean and unsettling.
There is the gorgeous and heart-warming tale of Charlie, the little raindrop who is scared to jump off the cloud and be who he is meant to be; the endearing love story between Mabel and Abel, an elderly couple seeking the services of a hitman as a test of their love; the heart-wrenching tale of Felicity, a young girl on the eve of an abortion, wishing it were yesterday; and a re-telling of Red Riding Hood, one full of terror and bloodsplattering twists.
A surreal journey, as if the lovechild of Albert Camus, Stephen King, and the Dalai Lama had sought, with a broken heart, to unease and frighten as much as delight and enlighten.
P.S. You die at the end.
