Buchbeschreibung Hardcover. Zustand: new. About the AuthorMelissa Albert is the New York Times and indie bestselling author of the Hazel Wood series (The Hazel Wood, The Night Country, Tales from the Hinterland) and a former bookseller and YA lit blogger. Her work has been translated into more than twenty languages and included in the New York Times list of Notable Childrens Books. She lives in Brooklyn with her family.Product DescriptionA gorgeously illustrated collection of twelve lush and deliciously sinister fairy tales (Kelly Link) by the New York Times bestselling author of The Hazel Wood and The Night Country!Before The Hazel Wood, there was Althea Proserpines Tales from the Hinterland.Journey into the Hinterland, a brutal and beautiful world where a young woman spends a night with Death, brides are wed to a mysterious house in the trees, and an enchantress is killed twice-and still lives.Perfect for new readers and dedicated fans alike, Melissa Albert's Tales from the Hinterland features full-page illustrations by Jim Tierney, foil stamping, two-color interior printing, and printed endpapers.From School Library JournalGr 9 Up-Albert presents Althea Prosperine's Tales from the Hinterland-the notorious collection of dark and twisted short stories that form the backbone of the world-building in The Hazel Wood and its sequel The Night Country. For the first time, the stories that protagonists Alice and Ellery encounter in Albert's previous novels are presented in their entirety. Readers familiar with the series will recognize many of the tales and characters here, notably Alice, Ilsa, and Hansa. Albert aptly channels classic fairy tale sensibilities into eerie and brutal tales that would have the Brothers Grimm reaching for an extra candle at night. Centering female characters in each story, Albert explores the facets of girl- and womanhood in a world dominated and usually shaped by men. Standouts in the collection include "The House Under the Stairwell," where sisterhood wins the day as Isobel seeks help from the Wicked Wife before she is trapped in a deadly betrothal; "The Clockwork Bride," a richly told story where a girl hungry for enchantment carelessly promises her first daughter to a sinister toymaker who, when he tries to claim his prize, instead finds a girl who wishes only to belong to herself; and "Death and the Woodwife," where a princess uses her wits and her mother's unusual gifts to outwit Death and his heir. Characters have various skin tones. VERDICT Stories fueled by feminist rage, the frustration of being underestimated, and the insatiable longing to experience more mark this collection as timely and universal.-Emma Carbone, Brooklyn P.L.a(c) Copyright 2011. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc. No redistribution permitted.ReviewThe writing is as spare and precise as poetry, connected to the darker, edgier elements of fairy-tale conventions. Alberts rich and tightly focused collection forms the core of the mythology created in her novels, and her fans will be thrilled at this further glimpse into that world. -Booklist, starred reviewRich with bloodshed, metamorphosis and inevitable comeuppance, written with the absolute assurance of a master storyteller summoning an audience to the fireside on a winters night, Alberts book is uniquely transporting and discomfiting, a length of shining fabric flecked with glass that sparkles as it cuts. -The Times Literary Supplement (UK)Lush and deliciously sinister fairytales to be consumed as greedily as Turkish delight or any fairy fruit. I loved these. -Kelly Link, author of Get in TroubleThis inventive, enchanting collection reads like the fairy tales of old, hushed stories passed woman to woman, before the Grimms came and wiped away all the blood. -Laura Ruby, author of Thirteen Dorways, Wolves Behind Them AllWe first heard about the book of fairy tales written by Althea Proserpine in The Hazel Wood, and witnessed the fallout fro.
