Wild Swan - Paperback

by Michael Cunningham (Author)
Fairy tales for our times from the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Hours
Named a Best Book of the Year by NPR, Slate, and Bustle
A poisoned apple and a monkey's paw with the power to change fate; a girl whose extraordinarily long hair causes catastrophe; a man with one human arm and one swan's wing; and a house constructed of gumdrops and gingerbread. In A Wild Swan and Other Tales, the people and the talismans of lands far, far away--the mythic figures of our childhoods and the source of so much of our wonder--are transformed by Michael Cunningham into stories of sublime revelation.
