Horse, Flower, Bird

By Kate Bernheimer

Eight marvelous, melancholy new fairy tales for daring readers.

In Kate Bernheimer's familiar and spare, yet wondrous world, an exotic dancer builds her own cage, a wife tends a secret basement menagerie, a fishmonger's daughter befriends a tulip bulb, and sisters explore cycles of love and violence by reenacting scenes from Star Wars. Enthralling, subtle, and poetic, this collection evokes the age-old pleasures of classic fairy tales and makes them new.
