Pullman will retell 50 of the tales, “from the quests and romance of classics such as Rapunzel, Snow White and Cinderella to the danger and wit of such lesser-known tales as The Three Snake Leaves, Hans-My-Hedgehog and Godfather Death” with additional commentary on the history of each story. The project has been Pullman’s main focus in the last two years.
This release, currently scheduled to hit shelves on November 8, will mark the 200th year since the publication of the original.
