Stories bring the world into existence, but things are not always what they seem. Devils lurk at the side of the road and feathery wives try to dodge the gates of hell, so keep your wits about you. The Master Storytellers are back to take you to the edge of gloom, laughter and redemption. Music cleanses the palate between stories.

A collection of selected writing from Stone's articles and books, 1975-2004, that reflect on the value of fairy tales as adult literature. With her innovative and often unconventional perspective, Stone's work explores women in fairy tales, traditional tales told by contemporary tellers and comparisons of dreams and folktales as artistic expressions. As a whole, this collection is a look at both the evolution of a career and the recent history of fairy-tale scholarship.
