New World Fairy Tales
Author: Cassandra Parkin
Publisher: Salt Publishing
ISBN: 9781844718818
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 155
Book Description
In contemporary America, an un-named college student sets out on an obsessive journey of discovery to collect and record the life-stories of total strangers. The interviews that follow have echoes of another, far more famous literary journey, undertaken long ago and in another world. Drawing on the original, unexpurgated tales collected by Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm, six of their most famous works are re-imagined in the rich and endlessly varied landscapes of contemporary America. From the glass towers of Manhattan to the remoteness of the Blue Ridge mountains; from the swamps of Louisiana to the jaded glamour of Hollywood, New World Fairy Tales reclaims the fairy tale for the modern adult audience. A haunting blend of romance and realism, these stripped-back narratives of human experience are the perfect read for anyone who has read their child a bedtime fairy story, and wondered who ever said these were stories meant for children.

Book Description
Excerpt from The New World Fairy Book Rennie's father was a teacher; and when he was teaching white men's knowledge to the young redskins in the little log school-house, or making up lessons for them in his log study, his own small boy used to play among the litter of hickory shavings down on the bank of the big river and bother the Indian men and women who sat there making snowshoes and lacrosse sticks. They rather liked his bothering, even those who could hardly understand a word of his chatter; and the whittling and stringing never went on so merrily when Little Sunrise had to stay at home helping his mother about the house.
