After Ever

What if Little Red Riding Hood asked the wolf to save her from the woodcutter? Why would Hansel and Gretel run away from their home to seek out the witch’s oven? These and other questions are answered in the Marrain Chronicles, which take a playful approach to retelling well-known tales without shying away from their darker aspects. This collection brings together the first four Marrain stories, originally published individually, in a single volume for the first time: “Why, Grandmother”, “Nobody’s Daughter”, “Somebody’s Children”, and “The Violet Cloak: A Marrain Legend”. If you love fairy tales, families, and unexpected happy endings, why not give it a try?
