Synopsis
Based on the well-known fairy tales of the Brothers Grimm, Charles Perrault, and Hans Christian Andersen, these retellings will intrigue and disturb readers. From a futuristic "Little Red Riding Hood" in which giant clams and carnivorous beasts stalk humans, to the real reason why the giant in "Jack and the Beanstalk" needs to eat human bones, to a version of "Snow White" told from the wicked stepmother's point of view, fans of fairy and folk tales will find much to interest them.

From the Publisher
These eight chilling tales are based on the well-known fairy tales of the Brothers Grimm, Charles Perrault, and Hans Christian Andersen. Each offers perspective that is hideously fascinating, startlingly imaginative, and beautifully written. In a futuristic retelling of "Little Red Riding Hood" a young girl named Ruby inhabits a frightening world in which clever mutated beasts stalk humans. In a poignant version of "Jack and the Beanstalk" the giantess explains her people's urgent need for the ground bones of the lesser species they hunt. Fantastical yet terrifyingly believable, Priscilla Galloway's Truly Grim Tales will forever change the way readers view these familiar childhood stories.
