"An extraordinary book, and a 'first' on the topic."--Jack Zipes "Examining the workings of the powerful desire machines built into postmodern versions of 'Snow White,' 'Little Red Riding Hood,' 'Beauty and the Beast,' and 'Bluebeard,' Cristina Bacchilega's astute rereadings uncover intriguing mirrorings and revisions."--Ruth B. Bottigheimer, State University of New York at Stony Brook
