Description
Real fairytales are not sugar-coated fables intended for children, but parables for
mature readers filled with meaning and conveyed by detail that is often gritty. Lynn
Kohner has stripped away the Walt Disney gloss to return to actual German texts--to give
us exact translations of tales that Germans read, pondered, and enjoyed a century ago.
Beyond Grimm brings together fairytales collected by Ludwig Bechstein, the chief
rival of the Brothers Grimm--a man who was more popular than the brothers in their time.
