A pretty good book! Not the fairy tales you are used to, Ie, not Disney, but very good version of fairy tales that really are only fit for grown-ups.

A twisted way of looking at the Grimm's fairy tales, told in a bibliography way, not very entertaining but it was informative.

Oh if most people only knew what the real Grimm was about. This is amazing and creepy all rolled into one.

Gruesome and ghastly tales for grown-ups! Murder, kidnapping, cruel punishment, and violent revenge - these are not your childhood bedtime stories. Grimm's Grimmest presents the original, unsanitized, unholy tales as they were first collected by the Brother Grimm. From the true horror of Aschenputtel (the original Cinderella story) to Rapunzel's dark secret, here are the authentic stories born long ago in the land of the Black Forest, at a time when fairy tales weren't for Children

I don't think I'll ever tire of this book. I first read it when I was in high school and here I am, almost two decades later, absolutely loving it. The art and the restored tales are beautifully dark and intriguing. Most enjoyable for those of us tired of the safe fairytales we know today.
