If you thought you knew the Grimm Bros, give this a listen. It's a new take on some old ideas.
In this bold reimagining of the classic Grimm’s fairy tales, five iconic heroines—Cinderella, Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, Mother Holle, and The Goose Girl—are given the chance to reclaim their stories.
While the original tales remain intact, each is followed by a sharp, witty essay from the perspective of the so-called villains.
From wicked stepmothers to jealous queens, these familiar antagonists finally get to speak for themselves—adding unexpected humor, insight, and a touch of irreverence to the timeless tales.
The collection opens with a thoughtful introduction exploring how beauty shapes our lives from the moment we're born, and closes with an afterword that challenges us to see fairy tale heroines—and ourselves—in a whole new light.
Grimm Women is a fresh take on beloved stories: humorous, thought-provoking, and surprisingly empowering.
