Item description
A leading American poet takes a second, mid-20th century look at thirty familiar fairy-tales and nursery rhymes.
How wonderfully simple, direct, and unfrustrated were the lives, motives, and aspirations of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Hansel and Gretel, Little Red Riding Hood, and the rest of our childhood legend acquaintances. Perhaps not says Sara Henderson Hay, in this delightful collection of poems that will bring a smile to the lips of scholar and schoolgirl alike.
Each poem is set in traditional sonnet form, and each offers a wry, often funny, sometimes quite poignant reflection on the frequently bewildering complexities of human nature as seen in contemporary terms. In Miss Hay?s own words, these poems, ?though based on nursery tales, are definitely not for children.?
