"At first glance, the stories in The New Adventures of Helen seems simple, even child-like, but a deep reading reveals satire and darkness manifested through classic fairy tale tropes characteristically upended by Petrushevskaya. These "adult fairy tales" ask deep questions about gender, love, history, memory, and the future, taking place in times between history and the now. These stories, quirky yet inspired by a confident hopefulness, will inspire and provoke English-speaking readers across the globe."-- No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

The New Adventures of Helen by Ludmilla Petrushevskaya is an awesome compilation of some magical tales. I have read a Russian writer for the first time. I am so impressed with her writing style. In only 7 stories, she has depicted Love, Hate, Freedom, Gender and Faith. You would not be able to put down the book as the stories are so engrossing. The cover of the book is simple and eye catching. Thanks to Edelweiss for giving me an opportunity to read it.
