Pickpick

This enchanting fairy tale collection is by women's suffragist & socialist Mary De Morgan (1850–1907) whose fairy tales are remarkable for their feminism, criticism of mass production, & deviations from traditional "happily ever afters.” In this collection, water elves cure a farmer's daughter of her vanity by stealing her reflection, a sunbeam and moonbeam fall in love, a princess runs away from court leaving an automaton in her stead, & more!
