I love this collection of Feminist Fairytales that are not overbearing. The Princess who stood on her own two feet is my favorite piece. It is elegantly told and funny and absolutely clear.

My other favorite in the series is Malagan and the Lady of Rascas, a dense romantic difficult but profound revision of Beauty and the Beast.

There are several in it that are good, not great, but very enjoyable reads.
