7 dark tales

Grace, Christine, 1947-2018
Books, Manuscripts
This collection of 7 dark tales is a startling and imaginative take on the fairytale form. Inspired by the Brothers Grimm, each narrative gently unfolds, reminiscent of ancient, oral story-telling. The reader is constantly taken in unexpected directions as the tales explore contemporary themes of jealousy, relationship and death.
