This is an excellently researched book, almost making us feel like witnesses to the lives of these seven creators, while at the same time providing some great background to the wider historical and social context to aid our understanding of the circumstances in which they lived and worked.
While I had heard of some of these fairy tellers before, there was much I didn't know about their lives and works, and I greatly appreciated the opportunity to get to know some fairy tellers I had never encountered before. As a lover of fairytales in all their forms, this was an absolute treat! It's not the easiest read though, so it might prove tough to get through for some people, especially if not used to reading non-fiction.
