A clear, imaginative and fascinating illumination of the stories we thought we knew. --Los Angeles Times Book Review For scholars, students, and general readers, Tatar's book is a balanced, sensitive, and informative guide to the content and context of Grimms' fairy tales. --Merle Rubin, Christian Science Monitor Tatar takes detours into literary history here and into comparative anthropology there. What results is at once intelligently eclectic and refreshingly commonsensical, a thoughtful ramble through the dark childhood woods that haunt our adult dreams. --Carl Maves, San Francisco Chronicle The Hard Facts of the Grimms' Fairy Tales--related in language that is sharp, lively, and free of jargon--is delightful evidence that Grimm scholarship can give pleasure to the general reader. --Janet Adam Smith, New York Review of Books
