Notes

The Fairy Tale Collection of Franz Xaver von Schönwerth

“Once upon a time … the fairytales you thought you knew had endings you wouldn’t recognise. A new collection of German folk stories has Hansel and Gretel getting married after an erotic encounter with a dwarf, an enchanted frog being kissed not by a damsel in distress but by a young man, and Cinderella using her golden slippers to recover her lover from beyond the moon.” More at The Guardian (Thanks, Adele!)
