Through variations that are by turns surprising, charming, horrifying and thought-provoking, The Tales of Cupid and Psyche explores each step of the classic fairy tale. Fifty-eight variations, vignettes, flashbacks, nested narratives, and philosophical riddles treat Apuleius' famous and beautiful fairytale with a profound playfulness and show how this ancient Greek fairytale still influences our ideas about love, sex, stories, family, and fate. Born in Glasgow, A.R. McHugh wrote a DPhil at University College, Oxford, and now lives in Sydney.
