I am not going to summarize the plots of the three stories since it has already been done twice but I will say that all three stories were exceptionally well written with a lovely blend of fantasy and realism. The imagery in all the stories was very vivid and it was easy to visualize the different settings. All the stories had an element of poignancy and they all seemed to describe the bittersweetness of love and that in life, there is no gain without loss. These stories were not what I think of when I think about fairy tales, but I enjoyed reading them andi appreciated their originality. If asked if I would recommend this book, I would say "yes."
