Descriere magazin:
NATIONAL BESTSELLER - NEW YORK TIMES EDITORS\' CHOICE - The Brothers Grimm meet Black Mirror meets Alice in Wonderland . . . . In seven remixed fairy tales, Link delivers wit and dreamlike intrigue.-- Time Thought-provoking and wonderfully told . . . so seamlessly entwines the real with the surreal that the stories threaten to slip into reality, resonating long after reading.-- BuzzFeed A new collection from one of today\'s finest short story writers, MacArthur Genius Grant fellow Kelly Link, bestselling author of the Pulitzer Prize finalist Get in Trouble --featuring illustrations by award-winning artist Shaun Tan Finding seeds of inspiration in the stories of the Brothers Grimm, seventeenth-century French lore, and Scottish ballads, Kelly Link spins classic fairy tales into utterly original stories of seekers--characters on the hunt for love, connection, revenge, or their own sense of purpose. In The White Cat\'s Divorce, an aging billionaire sends his three sons on a series of absurd goose chases to decide which child will become his heir. In The Girl Who Did Not Know Fear, a professor with a delicate health condition becomes stranded for days in an airport hotel after a conference, desperate to get home to her wife and young daughter, and in acute danger of being late for an appointment that cannot be missed. In Skinder\'s Veil, a young man agrees to take over a remote house-sitting gig for a friend. But what should be a chance to focus on his long-avoided dissertation instead becomes a wildly unexpected journey, as the house seems to be a portal for otherworldly travelers--or perhaps a door into his own mysterious psyche. Twisting and turning in astonishing ways, expertly blending realism and the speculative, witty, empathetic, and never predictable--these stories remind us once again of why Kelly Link is incomparable in the realm of short fiction.
