Revisioning Red Riding Hood around the World: An… di Sandra L. Beckett
OK, so your a fairy tale aficionado, you know that it's all about the parable. Little Red Riding Hood or Little Red Riding Cap is the most renown of the fairy tales and has been translated into every language on earth. On top of that there have been hundreds if not thousands of re-tellings and re-imaginings of the story. This anthology covers both the authors of the re-imaginings and the re-imaginings themselves translated into English. In my opinion, however, the volume was just slightly too long to be fully enjoyable. After all, how many times can you re-read Little Red Riding Hood?… (altro)

This book was quite fascinating. To learn of the many spins to the story of Little Red Riding hood over the years was intriguing. The folklore, poetry, short stories and overall history was entertaining at first but became slightly tedious and repetitive after awhile. Maybe if the book was a bit shorter I could rate it higher. Overall a solid 3 stars.
