Have you ever wondered about the fates of female characters in various fairy tales, myths, and stories that were told to us in childhood? I am sure you haven't thought about it as much as folklorist-anthropologist Sharon Blackie has. With exquisite poetic language, the author invites us to reconsider the female role in all the familiar classic plots and to ask the question: why are men always put at the forefront, while women are pushed to the background and portrayed either as a complement to their husbands or as villains?<\/p>
