Description - Black Swan, White Raven by Ellen Datlow
- A stellar assymbly of many of today's most creative and accomplished
storytellers has gathered around the tribal fire to embroider well-worn yarns
with new golden thread. Black Swan, White Raven revisits the tales that
charmed, enthralled, and terrified us in our early youth — carrying us
aloft into the healthy, beating heart of cherished myth to tell once again the
stories of Rumpelstiltskins and sleeping beauties, only this time from an edgy,
provocative and distinctly adult perspective. The themes and archetypes of our
beloved childhood fiction are reexamined in a darker light by 21 superb teller
of tales who deftly uncover the ironic, the outrageous, the enigmatic and the
erotic at the core of the world's best-known fables, while revealing the
sobering truths and lies behind "happily ever after."
