Scott, Michael (1866), Green and Golden Tales: Irish Fairy Tales, Dublin: Sphere Books Limited, ISBN 0-85342-866-2; ISBN 978-0-85342-866-4. Retrieved 27 November 2017. Book lovers will love this unique, delightful sci-fi fractured Sleeping Beauty fairy tale. Lex loves books, but her parents take them all away, worried about the potential for a cursed paper cut. But Lex is no simpering, helpless damsel in distress. No. She’s strong and smart! She and her dog Prince solve her curse problem herself. And they all read happily ever after. The beautiful Indo prostitute Dewi Ayu and her four daughters are beset by incest, murder, bestiality, rape, insanity, monstrosity, and the often-vengeful undead. Kurniawan’s gleefully grotesque hyperbole functions as a scathing critique of his young nation’s troubled past: the rapacious offhand greed of colonialism; the chaotic struggle for independence; the 1965 mass murders of perhaps a million ‘Communists,’ followed by three decades of Suharto’s despotic rule.” If the shoe fits, maybe don’t cut off your toe: Cinderella and similar tales Ash by Malinda Lo Once upon a time” must be the first thing people think when they think of fairy tales. It must be the most recognisable and universal of literary lines. Why is it so powerful?

But this likeness forces her to flee from her father’s lust and madness; and in the pain and horror of that flight she forgets who she is and what it is she flees from: forgets almost everything but the love and loyalty of her dog, Ash, who accompanies her. But a chance encounter on the road leads to a job in another king’s kennels, where the prince finds himself falling in love with the new kennel maid…and one day he tells her of a princess named Lissla Lissar, who had a dog named Ash.” Is it ever okay to kiss someone you think is dead?: Snow White and Similar Tales Boy, Snow, Bird by helen oyeyemi Andrew Lang (1844 - 1912) together with his wife, Leonora Blanche Lang collected hundreds of different fairy tales taken from the folklore, traditions and classical literature from many different countries in the World.
