Download or read book Even Grimmer Tales written by Valerie Volk and published by Interactive Publications. This book was released on 2012 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adult fairy tales – not for the faint-hearted, indeed! Valerie Volk has transported and adapted many of the classic Brothers Grimm tales into a modern context, demonstrating that the "real" can sometimes be more bizarre and horrific than the imaginary. With witty prose pieces to set the scene and Leszek Hermanowicz's clever drawings to enhance the mood, each poem becomes a tour de force, demonstrating how these tales still have relevance today. The Brothers would certainly approve!
