You know the old tales... Queens & lovers... Thorns & magic... Promises made but never fulfilled... Jennifer Crow's poetry ventures into that enchanted realm, exploring the fairy tales and myths you think you've always known. These poems will tempt you with their shiny-bright surface, but their taste has become delightfully unfamiliar... There is a new sharpness here-of secrets hidden below the surface-and like The First Bite of the Apple, their sweetness soon gives way to the darkness beneath.
