This article, written by Megan O'Grady, covers novelists that are "[reinventing] the fairytale." Although the stories aren't entirely new, they are a hilarious twist on tales as old as time.
O'Grady name-drops the following: The Crane Wife (a novel suggesting that happiness itself is the new happily ever after), Boy, Snow, Bird (a hilarious rendition on the "evil stepmother"), and All the Birds, Singing (a combination of the story of Little Bo Peep and Hansel and Gretel), and many more. Nostalgic and hilarious, these novels are promised to be worth our while.
