Résumé
Fairy tales retold—with a twist—from &“some of our best storytellers&” including Neil Gaiman, Gahan Wilson, Tanith Lee, and others (The Washington Post). In this &“no holds barred . . . nightmarish . . . provocative&” collection, bestselling and award-winning fantasy masters put a… dark, disturbing, and erotic spin on your favorite bedtime stories—and give you something entirely new to trouble your dreams (The New York Times Book Review). A boy is haunted through adulthood by a soul-eating creature that lies forever in wait under Neil Gaiman&’s &“Troll Bridge&”; a melancholy amphibian shares his most private fantasies with a therapist in Gahan Wilson&’s &“The Frog Prince&”; in Tanith Lee&’s &“Snow-Drop,&” a lonely artist invites seven circus performers into her home to satisfy an obsession; in Steve Rasnic Tem&’s &“Little Poucet,&” a band of lost brothers find refuge and terror with a hungry family in the woods; and Wendy Wheeler delves into the deviant psyche of the predatory male in &“Little Red.&” Also featuring Nancy Kress, Charles de Lint, Melanie Tem, Patricia A. McKillip, Jack Dann, and others, all paying a revisit to our favorite fairy tales in ways you&’ve never dared to imagine.
