A good read with Halloween approaching.
A triste and woeful tale but not at all depressing.
It is beautifully retold and magnificently illustrated which is what caught my eye from the moment I saw it.
It sadness is simply a reflection of our lack of humanity.
War, death, torture, suffering, living in fear, poverty.
Somewhat of a bittersweet ending which was inevitable and befitting considering that fairy tales were in their true form
More tales of terror than happy endings.
