From much-loved stories like “Cinderella” and “Rumpelstiltskin”, “Rapunzel” and “Hansel and Gretel” to lesser-known treasures like “Briar-Rose”, “Thousandfurs”, and “The Girl with No Hands”, Pullman retells his fifty favorites, paying homage to the tales that inspired his unique creative vision—and that continue to cast their spell on the Western imagination.
