What an extraordinarily lovely book! Neil Gaiman writes a very pretty foreword. The book itself briefly retells several fairytales, and each story is accompanied by sculpture. It was a wonderful take on some beloved and more obscure tales. The art is powerful and sometimes off-putting. I adored this.
