Gossip from the forest : the tangled roots of our forests and fairytales
Maitland, Sara, 1950-2012
Book
Fairytales are one of our earliest and most vital cultural forms, and forests one of our most ancient and primal landscapes. Both evoke a similar sensation in us - we find them beautiful and magical, but also spooky, sometimes horrifying. In this book, Maitland argues that the two forms are intimately connected.
