Descriere magazin:
This vibrant collection brings together World Fantasy Award winner Goss\'s exquisite interpretations of and variations on familiar folk and fairy tales. The 48 poems and 25 stories span the length of Goss\'s career ... All approach well-known stories from unexpected angles and with deep empathy for the characters ... The abundance of pieces sometimes has the effect of a musical fugue: common motifs, places, and characters echo through the works, with each reappearance adding something fresh. -Publishers Weekly A wicked stepsister frets over all the ways in which she failed to receive her mother\'s love. A lost woman travels through an enchanted forest looking for someone who can remind her of her name. A girl must wear down seven pairs of shoes to gain help from a witch. A fox makes a life with a human, but neither can deny their true natures. A young woman returns to her childhood home and the fantastic stories she left there. A man lets himself be taken prisoner by the Snow Queen to prove that the woman who loves him would walk barefoot through the ice to save him. Medusa cuts her hair for love.The Collected Enchantments gathers retellings of folk and fairy tales in prose and verse from World Fantasy and Locus award-winning author Theodora Goss, creator of The Extraordinary Adventures of the Athena Club series. Drawing from her Mythopoeic Award-nominated collections In the Forest of Forgetting and Songs for Ophelia and her Mythopoeic Award-winning tome Snow White Learns Witchcraft, and adding new and uncollected stories and poems, The Collected Enchantments provides a resounding demonstration of how, as Hugo and Nebula award winner Jo Walton writes, Goss provides a vivid, authentic and important voice that, in the words of Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers Association Grand Master Jane Yolen, transposes, transforms, and transcends times, eras, and old tales with ease. In the tradition of great modern fantasists like Angela Carter and Marina Warner, Theodora Goss\'s sublime tales are modern classics-beautiful, sly, sensual and deeply moving . . . I envy any reader encountering Goss\'s work for the first time. -Elizabeth Hand, winner of the Mythopoeic, Nebula, Shirley Jackson and World Fantasy awards With cover art by Catrin Welz-Stein and interior black and white illustrations by Paula Arwen Owen.
