Trade Review
"A Literary Hub Most Anticipated Book of the Year"
"A potent testament to the power of stories." * Publishers Weekly *
"Jack Zipes is a rare and precious commodity: an academic who is readable and accessible."---Terry Potter, The Letterpress Project
"Buried Treasures is an apt title for this collection of profiles of modern writers and illustrators who used fairy tales to make political statements. . . . Highly recommended." * Choice Reviews *
"A curious corpus of radical political fairy tales—some available in English for the first time—authored by an extraordinary woman writer, a free spirit and a socialist, and a humanitarian activist rescued from obscurity via this important gesture of canon revision. . . . [A] delightful read."---Anna Kérchy, Marvels & Tales
