There Once Lived a Woman Who Tried to Kill Her Neighbour's Baby. Scary Fairy Tales

📖 There Once Lived a Woman Who Tried to Kill Her Neighbour's Baby. Scary Fairy Tales

A woman finds herself filling a pit in the forest in the middle of the night; a family lock each other in their bedrooms to battle a strange plague; a wizard punishes two beautiful ballerinas by turning them into one hugely fat circus performer; a colonel is warned not to lift the veil from his dead wife's face; and a distraught father brings his daughter back to life by eating human hearts in his dreams. In these blackly comic tales of revenge, disturbing deaths and haunting melancholy, Ludmilla Petrushevskaya blends miracles and madness in the darkest of modern fairy tales.
